I'm doing a suspension overhaul on a 86 e30.

Would like to know if it's possible to replace the old ready made strut combined wheel-hub with the modern day ready made shock combined strut, wheel hub separate to strut and if so what type of wheel hub would best suite the overhaul.

I believe on a project like this you will also have to change the suspension arms because the pickup points are different. Having the updated strut is really not going to help you so I would stay with the stock design.
