ARP Upgraded Rod Bolt Kit - BMW E9X M3 S65 1987982674

If you're already in the bottom end for rod bearings, replace the rod bolts while you're there. This is a set of 16 ARP connecting rod bolts made specifically for the S65 — far more fatigue-resistant than the OE BMW hardware, and cheap insurance on the one job you don't want to do twice.

Each bolt is ARP2000 material, rated to a clamp load of 220,000 psi, and made to fit BMW factory connecting rods, so it drops into a standard rod-bearing service. ARP is the world leader in fastener technology, with a track record across NASCAR, IndyCar, and Formula 1. Set does not include ARP lube.

Fits: E9X M3 (S65), M3 E90/E92/E93

Quantity: 16 rod bolts

About ARP:

Back in the early 1970s, racing enthusiast Gary Holzapfel kept seeing his friends' engines destroyed by fastener failure — and at the time nothing commercially available was up to the job. So he drew on years of fastener-making experience for a leading aerospace subcontractor and founded ARP (Automotive Racing Products). What started as a backyard garage workshop is now seven operations in Southern California — forging, heat-treating, machining, finishing, and packaging across Santa Paula and Ventura. Today ARP's line runs to thousands of part numbers, from OEM-replacement hardware to specialty fasteners for Formula 1, IndyCar, NASCAR, and NHRA drag racing.
