The Powerflex BMW E39 5 Series Rear Lower Arm Front Bushing is designed to improve the performance and durability of the suspension system by replacing the factory-installed rubber bushings with high-performance polyurethane. This bushing fits into the front position of the rear lower control arm, offering enhanced handling and stability for the BMW E39 5 Series.

Key Features:

• Precision Fit for BMW E39 5 Series: This bushing is custom-designed for the BMW E39 5 Series, ensuring a perfect fit in the rear lower control arm's front position. It directly replaces the OEM rubber bushing, providing a simple and effective suspension upgrade without modification.
• Polyurethane Durability: Constructed from high-grade polyurethane, this bushing offers superior wear resistance compared to traditional rubber bushings. It withstands environmental factors such as heat, oil, and road debris, ensuring long-lasting performance and reducing the need for frequent replacements.
• Improved Handling and Suspension Stability: The stiffer polyurethane material minimizes excess movement in the lower control arm, improving suspension geometry and control. This translates to sharper handling, better stability, and enhanced cornering ability, especially during high-speed or spirited driving.
• Enhanced Ride Comfort: While the bushing is designed to provide firmer support than the OEM rubber, it retains a level of compliance that helps maintain ride comfort. This makes it suitable for both performance enthusiasts and daily drivers who want improved handling without sacrificing smoothness.
• Extended Suspension Life: By maintaining better alignment and reducing strain on the suspension system, the bushing helps prevent premature wear on other components. This ensures that the entire suspension system operates more efficiently and lasts longer.

Differential bushings are responsible for keeping the differential in solid alignment while dampening drivetrain vibration. While OE rubber bushings are fine when they are new from the factory, aged and worn out rubber bushings create a multitude of issues that can range from annoying to dangerous. As a factory bushing ages, it begins to harden and become brittle. When this happens the bushing will actually shrink and allow for movement at the differential mounting point. At this point, the differential is free to shift under load causing a noticeable clunking noise under acceleration and deceleration and massively increasing the stress on the driveshaft and axles. Manual transmissions suffer the worst from this as it can make shifting difficult since the differential will shift when the clutch is engaged and disengaged.

By replacing these bushings with full polyurethane, the movement is eliminated since the mounting point is supported by a much stiffer material that will not harden or shrink over time. This means less stress on the driveshaft and axles and greater longevity of supporting components. 

Powerflex Black Series bushings are the ultimate in track and race bushings. Featuring 95A durometer polyurethane, Black Series bushings are 25% stiffer than street bushings. Engineered to perform, Powerflex performance polyurethane control arm bushings offer a supreme level of control, while still providing enough comfort for the street, with advanced polyurethane that reduces NVH that often accompanies lesser bushings. Expect improved acceleration response, more direct shifting feel and overall improved drivetrain composure with Powerflex performance polyurethane bushings.
