BMW’s are known to have failure prone front thrust arm bushings.  The flexible rubber bushings, even those found in M performance models, allow significant movement of the front wheels to maximize daily driving comfort, but also allow considerable alignment change.  This results in a disconnected and numb road feel, standing between you and a confidence inspiring driving experience.  Eventually the fluid filled rubber bushings fatigue and crack due to continual deflection and ozone degradation, and eventually the damping fluid leaks out resulting in complete failure. 

For the enthusiast looking for superior performance and longevity with a crisp, confidence-inspiring driving experience, our sealed ball joint monoballs are the best solution available!  Our experience with spherical front control arm ball joints go back to those we designed and used in our IMSA E90 328i and E92 M3 racecars (GS class Champions in 2011).  We wanted to offer E31, E32, E34, E38, E39, E53, E60, E63, E64, and E83 owners similar levels of handling precision and control for the track and street. 

The bearing housing is precision CNC machined from 6061-T6 anodized aluminum and features a knurled OD to ensure a perfect press fit, and utilize a sealed OEM BMW ball joint for exceptional quality and durability, making them completely at home on both the street and track with no compromise.  We have done extensive street, autocross, and track testing to ensure the ball joint used in this bushing design excels in each setting.  The advantage of a sealed ball joint is that it eliminates all unwanted deflection while still allowing complete bind-free movement throughout suspension travel, resulting in exceptional control of wheel alignment.  What you get is superior steering precision, turn-in response, direct braking feedback, and better handling.

In short, if you're seeking the ultimate in precise, predictable handling and control, with crisp braking response and a long service life that’s equally at home on the street or track - look no further. We have you covered.

We offer these thrust arms with the monoball bushings pre-installed for your convenience. Since BMW recommends the control arms be replaced for every other bushing change, we prefer to sell these as a pre-assembled set. The bushings are also available separately if you wish to source your own control arms.

The ECS Strut Tower Bar Kit in striking wrinkle black finish goes beyond aesthetics - it offers essential functionality. This kit significantly reduces chassis flex, contributing to a stiffer suspension setup. Moreover, it plays a crucial role in triangulating the front end, resulting in more consistent suspension geometry that enhances your vehicle's performance.

It's essential to ensure that the strut tower plates sit flush against the strut towers. Any misalignment may indicate minor deformations in your strut towers. However, this can be easily addressed using a block of wood and a hammer to reinstate the ideal alignment.

Rubber mounts in any position of a vehicle are usually designed with comfort and longevity in mind leaving performance as a sacrifice. This kind of sacrifice here at Turner just won't do, so we did what we do best and designed a solid monoball mount.

Our engineering team first wanted to tackle the issue with wear found on rubber mounts. Due to their combination of steel, rubber, and low mounting location, these mounts are a direct target for deterioration and failure. As they are positioned out in the open and exposed to the elements, bonded steel and rubber components inevitably hold moisture, separating as the steel bearing begins to rust. Our solution was to offer a rebuildable mount with a Teflon lined bearing for increased durability, combined with a blue anodized body and melonite coated bushing sleeves for corrosion resistance.

The performance side of these mounts is primarily found in the articulation allowed by the bearing. Rubber mounts do not allow for proper free damper movement, hindering shock performance. By eliminating the deflection found in factory rubber mounts and allowing full shock articulation, this solid monoball design eliminates slop and maximizes shock efficiency and performance, allowing for more predictable handling on the street or the track - with almost zero added noise, vibration, and harshness.

Replaces OE part #: 33526768544

Key Benefits:

• Monoball rear lower shock mount eliminates unwanted deflection, maximizing shock efficiency and performance.
• Allows full shock body articulation for low friction movement and reduced side loading and improved shock wear.
• Designed to work with stock non-M taper seat stud style shocks (not M eyelet mount type).
• Maintains OE shock position

Design features:

• Rebuildable using off the shelf bearings - these are the last rear shock mounts you’ll need to buy
• Includes new hardware
• Made in USA

Housing:

• Billet CNC 6061-T6 aluminum housing, type II anodized for exceptional durability and corrosion resistance

Bearing:

• FK WSSX14T teflon lined spherical bearing

Due to their soft rubber construction, OE strut mounts are known to wear at an accelerated rate. Many high-mileage vehicles fall victim to strut mount failure, which is commonly associated with annoying clunks, groans, or rattles from the front suspension.

With this issue in mind, ECS Tuning developed their heavy-duty front strut mount with upgraded, higher durometer rubber to resolve sloppy handling and increase longevity. Manufactured precisely within OEM tolerances, these mounts are a perfect fit for your BMW.

Features:

Reduces deflection: Increases vehicle handling and cornering dynamics by removing deflection within the strut mount. Increases longevity: Upgraded rubber construction makes for a stiffer mount, less prone to cracking and general degradation. Developed in-house: Designed and tested by ECS Tuning engineers, this mount is sure to outlast an OE replacement. Upgrade to a better strut mount without sacrificing ride comfort! Improve longevity and ride control all at once.

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).

This package includes:

• Left M3 Guide Rod - 33322283547
• Right M3 Guide Rod - 33322283548
