Is the M8 steering rack interchangable with other 8series or 5series steering racks?

Bimmer8kid · 12-08-2023, 10:07 AM

Is it possible to swap the f91,92,93 M8 steering rack with let’s say a (G-series) 540 or 840 model steering rack? They look identical.

If so, is there any major drawbacks?

Beyond the already replies the $M question is why even attempt to do so?
