BMW Suspension Parts for BMW E39 M5 S62 5.0L

This sealed ball joint is in the lower rear outer control arm (swing arm) and is the primary weak point of the rear suspension. This one ball joint takes a lot of twisting and deflection so this is usually the first bushing to wear out. When it does, you have a 'loose' or disconnected feeling in the rear alignment. You can restore your car's stability by replacing this ball joint and also evaluating the other components in the rear suspension (upper wishbones and guide links). This part is made by Lemforder, the Original Equipment Manufacturer, and is a perfect fit and excellent quality. A new snap ring is included for your convenience. Beware of non-OEM brands at cheap prices that will not perform at the same standards as BMW intended.

Fine-tuning your coilover damping shouldn’t mean stripping out your rear seats or interior panels. On many applications, rear shock adjusters are hidden behind carpet, trim, or seatbacks, making quick adjustments a hassle.

The ECS Rear Damping Extension Kit solves that problem with a clean and functional solution. These flexible extensions relocate the adjustment knobs to an easily accessible point above the rear shock towers, letting you dial in your suspension from inside the cabin, no disassembly required.

Installation is straightforward: simply drill a small access hole in your interior trim and route the extension cables through. The adjustment knobs can be removed to allow the line to pass through smaller openings, minimizing cutting. For proper installation, be sure to fully loosen the set screw, insert the cable, then securely tighten it using the provided Allen key.

Kit Includes:

(2) Rear damping adjuster extension cables

Installation hardware and Allen key

A smart upgrade for track cars, daily drivers, or anyone who values easy access to suspension tuning, without compromising interior fit and finish.

Sway bar end links connect the swaybar to the rest of the suspension, preventing body roll and keeping everything in line in tight turns. This exposes these links to a high amount of stress and pressure, often leading to split bushings and sloppy body control and knocking noises. Meyle HD sway bar links are the perfect option to restore body control and eliminate knocking noises.

Meyle is a German brand in business since 1958 and all of their products are TUV approved and meet or exceed ISO standards. Heavy Duty components are designed to provide significantly long lifespans than other aftermarket and stock OE components. Each part includes a 4 year warranty.

The BMW E39 540, M5 (1996 - 2004) Front Inner Track Control Arm Bushing is a vital component in the suspension system, providing stability and precision to the front control arms. Designed to withstand the rigors of daily driving and performance demands, this bushing helps maintain optimal alignment, handling, and overall ride quality in the high-performance E39 540i and M5 models.

Key Features:

1. High-Quality Material:

   • Constructed from durable rubber or polyurethane, these bushings are designed to endure constant stress, ensuring long-lasting performance under both normal and aggressive driving conditions.

2. Enhanced Suspension Performance:

   • The bushing reduces excessive movement in the control arm, ensuring improved suspension alignment and handling characteristics. This is especially important in performance models like the BMW 540i and M5, where precision handling is critical.

3. Minimized Vibration and Noise:

   • Worn or degraded bushings can allow vibrations to travel through the suspension system into the cabin. New bushings help dampen these vibrations, resulting in a smoother, quieter, and more comfortable driving experience.

4. Improved Steering Response:

   • By reducing flex and movement in the control arm connection, these bushings provide a more direct and responsive steering feel. This is particularly noticeable in cornering and high-speed driving, where handling precision is essential.

5. Direct Fit for Easy Installation:

   • These bushings are designed as direct-fit replacements for the original parts, ensuring easy installation for BMW E39 540i and M5 models. They restore the vehicle to factory performance or better, depending on material choice (rubber vs. polyurethane).

6. Polyurethane Upgrade for Performance Enthusiasts:

   • For those seeking even greater performance, polyurethane bushings offer increased rigidity and longevity over traditional rubber. This upgrade provides sharper handling and reduces bushing flex, making it ideal for track or spirited driving.

Benefits of Upgrading or Replacing:

• Restore Suspension Integrity: Worn-out bushings can cause poor suspension geometry, leading to uneven tire wear and compromised handling. Replacing the bushings restores proper alignment and control.
• Better Ride Quality: Fresh bushings absorb impacts and vibrations more effectively, improving the overall ride comfort, especially in high-mileage vehicles.
• Sharper Handling and Steering: New bushings ensure more precise control arm movement, translating into better steering feedback and cornering performance.

In conclusion, the BMW E39 540, M5 Front Inner Track Control Arm Bushing is a crucial part of the suspension system, responsible for maintaining alignment and handling dynamics. Whether you’re replacing worn bushings or upgrading to polyurethane for enhanced performance, this component ensures that your BMW E39 540i or M5 delivers the precision and comfort it was designed for.

These are the original front upper control arm bushings for the E39 540i/M5 and E38 740i/iL and 750iL. The OEM bushings from Lemforder are filled with heavy fluid to help dampen vibrations and rough road surfaces that can make their way up through the chassis and into the steering. As the bushing wears, is compressed and expanded, and subjected to harsh environments the fluid can leak out or evaporate which will leave the bushing without much strength. This can lead to a shimmy in the steering wheel and vibrations in the braking and handling that are often mis-diagnosed as warped brake rotors on the E39 and E38. Replacing these bushings with new parts will restore the precision and tightness to your steering and suspension.

The BMW part numbers for these arms are 31 12 1 092 609 and 31 12 1 092 610.

The front control arm bushings is the Achilles heel on the E39 models. The original factory bushings are fluid filled and rely on the fluid to absorb vibration and resist deflection. When the fluid is gone the rubber left over cannot match the original bushing's strength. The left over rubber is not stiff enough to resist the movements from the suspension. The result is a lot of vibration and reduced feedback and response from the steering. 

Meyle has addressed this issue with bushings that are not fluid-filled. The bushing is made of solid rubber that will last longer than the original bushing and is a bit stiffer than new originals for better response and feel. The lack of play from the solid rubber design will mean sharper steering, restoring much of the car's precision and 'connected' feel. 

This control arm comes with the Meyle HD bushings already pressed in. This makes for an easy swap out-swap in install. These arms replace the existing stock upper control arms - otherwise known as a tension strut or strut support arm. It's the arm with the twist. 

Meyle is a German brand in business since 1958 and all of their products are TUV approved and meet or exceed ISO standards. All Meyle HD parts come with a 4-year, unlimited mileage warranty. 

Features:

• 4 Year Warranty

• All metal ball joints are more reliable and longer lasting than stock
