E82 Complete Vehicle
The two upper links (blue in the illustration)
form a triangle in the top view as do the two
lower links (purple in the illustration). The rear
link (orange in the illustration) represents the
toe rod.
The rear axle carrier and the links are made
from high strength steel. The wheel carrier is
cast from aluminum alloy.
Minor differences exist between the HA 5 versions being used on the E9X and E82 vari-
ants. The rear axle of the E82 is fitted with modified wheel hubs. As a result, the rear track
width of the E82 has been widened by 20mm in comparison to the E9X. The extended
rear wheel arches, combined with the wider rear track width emphasizes this vehicle's
rear-wheel drive characteristics.
