    Front Upper Control Arm Upgrades - E82, E9X (non-M, non-Xi)   (more info)
    Looking for upper control arm options for your 2006-2012 3-series? Feeling a bit overwhelmed by the sea of options out there? Browse our guide of stock OEM, replacement, and upgraded upper control arm options and choose from a package below. Our packages come complete with the upper arms, inner bushings, outer ball joints, and all necessary hardware. For further reference on part location, refer to the front suspension diagram to the right, or expand the full option descriptions below:

    + Option 1 - Stock Replacement
    (click to expand)
    This option is the base set of replacement arms, ball joints, and bushings. These are direct replacement pieces that are no different than the parts that came on the car originally. If you want the same ride and handling characteristics as when the car was straight off the showroom, this is the best package for you to buy. Simply install your new parts, have an alignment done, and you're on your way!
    Option 1 Package Includes:
  • Left & Right Upper Control Arms with ball joints (31126769797 and 31126769798) aka Thrust Arm, Tension Strut, or Pull Rod.
  • Outer ball joint securing nuts
  • Inner control arm bushings (31120393540)
  • + Option 2 - Meyle HD Upgrade
    (click to expand)
    The Meyle HD arms and bushings are also a direct replacement for the original arms but feature stronger, more durable components. The Meyle HD outer ball joint is much larger and a higher-grade steel than the factory spec. The larger ball joint will last longer and the dust boot is stronger as well to keep out moisture and gritty contaminants. The inner HD bushing is a solid rubber piece instead of the fluid-filled stock bushings. The problem with the stock hydraulic bushings is that the fluid leaks out over time and the leftover rubber is not resilient enough to maintain control. The Meyle HD bushing is all rubber and will last significantly longer. It's also stiffer and deflects less to give a more sporty and crisp handling, and sharper steering. All alignment specs remain as per factory.
    Option 2 Package Includes:
  • Meyle HD Left & Right Upper Control Arms with HD ball joints (31126769797MY and 31126769798MY) aka Thrust Arm, Tension Strut, or Pull Rod.
  • Outer ball joint securing nuts
  • Meyle HD inner control arm bushings (31120304308MY)
  • + Option 3 - M3 Upgrade
    (click to expand)
    The M3 control arm upgrade is for people who want a very serious change in the ride/handling of the car. These are the factory E90/E92/E93 M3 upper control arms so the ride will not be much different than a standard M3. But it is a very large jump compared to the stock E9X arms and bushings. These are a direct replacement to the original arms and do not require any modification to install and will not change the alignment settings. For the best results, we recommend only using these with the M3 lower control arms (wishbones).
    Option 3 Package Includes:
  • M3 Left & Right Upper Control Arms with ball joints (31102283575 and 31102283576) aka Thrust Arm, Tension Strut, or Pull Rod.
  • Outer ball joint securing nuts
  • M3 inner control arm bushings (31102283579)
  • M3 headlight regulating rod (to maintain proper headlight aiming) (37142283867)

  • These Upper Control Arms will fit the following BMWs:
    2006-2011 E90 BMW 325i 328i 330i 335d 335i - Sedan
    2006-2011 E91 BMW 328i - Wagon
    2007-2012 E92 BMW 328i 335i 335is - Coupe
    2007-2012 E93 BMW 328i 335i - Convertible
    Part #: E9X-UPPER-CONTROL-ARMS
    Price: $189.90 (USD) 
    More Information

    M3 Front Upper+Lower Control Arm Upgrade - Left and Right - E82, E9X   (more info)
    The front upper and lower control arms from the E9X M3 are a direct bolt-in replacement upgrade for the stock parts on the non-M E90/E91/E92/E93 3-series and E82/E88 1-series. With the M3 components the fluid-filled bushings of the standard suspension are replaced with solid rubber cores or a sealed monoball-joint, making the suspension stiffer, more responsive, and longer lasting.

    This package includes:
  • M3 front upper control arms (thrust arm, tension strut) (31102283575 and 31102283576)
    The upper control arms eliminate the fluid-filled stock bushing which is very prone to leaking the fluid and cease being effective. The solid rubber M3 bushing is also a bit stiffer for more precise steering and control.
  • M3 front upper inner bushings (31102283579)
  • M3 front lower control arms (wishbone) (31102283577 and 31102283578)
    The M3 lower control arm has a sealed inner bearing instead of the rubber-isolated stock bushing. The bearing allows the lower arm to rotate freely instead of binding up. It's also a bit longer and curved slightly to give more negative camber (adds .75 of negative camber).
  • M3 headlight adjusting rod (37142283867)
    Replaces the stock rod on cars with adaptive headlights.

  • With the added negative camber the steering is sharper and understeer is reduced. And the stiffer bushings and bearings deflect less which also improves steering feel and response. Since all of these parts are from the M3 there is no question on quality or longevity; no doubt as to their effectiveness or reputation. There's almost no downside to this upgrade. These are intended for street cars but even lightly tracked cars will see significant benefits to the handling and response.

    This M3 upgrade package fits the following BMWs:
    2008-2012 E82 BMW 128i 135i
    2006-2011 E90 BMW 325i 328i 330i 335i - Sedan

    M3 Rear Guide Rod Upgrade - Left and Right - E82, E9x   (more info)
    These M3 rear guide rod arms are an upgrade for the non-M cars. The stock non-M arms are made from sheetmetal spot welded together at the ends. The arm tends to flex and bend under even moderate cornering loads. Factor in gripper tires and more torque and this arm is inadequate for stability and consistent handling. The M3 arms are one piece of aluminum offering greater strength and with a sealed monoball inner bushing that allows the arm to rotate (instead of twisting).

  • Left M3 Guide Rod - 33322283547

Factor in gripper tires and more torque and this arm is inadequate for stability and consistent handling.

    Rear Guide Rod - Left - E82, E9X   (more info)
    Replacement stock guide rod for the E82 1-series, E9X 3-series, and E84 X1. The guide rod helps to locate the rear suspension to the subframe and controls changes in the alignment as the suspension moves. As the rubber bushings wear, the alignment can change drastically, leading to a loose or floating handling feel. This is the stock replacement for the Left/Driver's side.

    Rear Toe Control Arm - Left and Right - E82, E9X   (more info)
    Replacement stock toe control arm (track strut) for the E82 1-series and E9X 3-series. The track strut controls the toe alignment of the rear suspension (whether the tire points in or out on a horizontal axis) It also helps to locate the suspension to the subframe. As the rubber bushings wear, the tire can actually drift in and out of alignment, resulting in a loose or unstable handling feel (especially when accelerating in a corner). This is the stock replacement that fits either the Left or Right side of the vehicle.

    This item fits the following BMWs:
    2008-2012 E82 BMW 128i 135i

    More Information

    Rear Trailing Arm - Left and Right - E82, E9X   (more info)
    Replacement stock lower trailing arm for the E82 1-series and E9X 3-series. The trailing arm is also an impact arm, and is designed to bend if the wheel takes a major impact. It can also be bent by tow truck operators looking for something to hook onto. However it happens, if the trailing arm is bent it will throw off the alignment for the rear suspension. There are rubber bushings at either end that also wear but these can be replaced separately (new arm includes new bushings). This is the stock replacement that fits either the Left or Ride side of the vehicle.

    Rear Upper Link - Left and Right - E82, E9X   (more info)
    Replacement stock upper link (wishbone) for the E82 1-series and E9X 3-series. The wishone helps to locate the rear suspension to the subframe and controls changes in the alignment as the suspension moves. As the rubber bushings wear, the alignment can change drastically, leading to a loose or floating handling feel. This is the stock replacement that fits either the Left or Right of the car. Price is per arm.
