The rear axle carrier needed quite some work to take the rust out and repaint it.
Here with the antirust color



Then painted black.

I installed the new bushes (original BMW).



Then I started the assembly.

I bolted the 4 arms (aluminium ones).
Then I put back the axle carrier on the car.
Next was the differential ($*#$#*$U*#$U heavy !!! )

There was a recall for the differential bolts of the M3 E46 & CSL, as the original bolts were breaking.
On the left the new bolt (it doesn't have threads throughout the length) and on the right the old bolt.

I installed the new bolts.



I also replaced all other bolts with new ones.

Everything was bolted back together.
I also changed the rear ARB drop links and the brake fluid.

Two months later and the car is ready...

Couple of pics after cleaning both cars with clay and polishing.

They look shiny now.
