Rear Control Arm

Our sealed Monoball Rear Trailing Arm Bushings (RTAB) are the best solution for completely eliminating deflection and unwanted toe changes on the rear of the E36, E46, and Z4. While rubber and urethane bushings flex during load, the toe can change widely giving you nervous and unpredictable handling. These RTABs have a solid aluminum housing with a high-quality sealed OE bearing. These bushings were developed from years of competition use in various racing and HPDE events. There is simply no better RTAB unless your racing class rules prohibit the use of mono or spherical bearings.

The rear trailing arm bushings take a lot of abuse from acclerating, braking and cornering. The stock rubber bushings are just not up to the task of keeping rear wheel alignment in spec for very long, especially if you have upgraded to stickier tires and a better suspension. The pliable rubber flexes and twists which slows down reaction time and leaves you with a car that feels nervous and 'tail happy'. Urethane helps to control the alignment but issues with fitment, maintenance, and longevity keep us from recommending urethane on anything but a street car. We also offer a Delrin RTAB for cars that must conform to certain racing class rules. These sealed spherical bearings are the best at controlling rear toe alignment.

Our aluminum RTABs are very well made - high grade aluminum alloy and steel CNC'd out of a billet by an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer, each component is either hardcoated or nickel plated. While multiple manufacturers offer two piece designs, our research showed that a one piece bushing is a better design featuring a sealed bearing to keep contaminants out extending the life of the bearing.

BMW F8X M3 M4 Rear Suspension Link Kit is designed to enhance the handling and stability of your high-performance BMW. This kit eliminates the vagueness and flex commonly associated with stock rear suspension links, which rely on rubber bushings that can flex under load. By replacing these with Teflon-coated, machined steel rod ends and billet aluminum rods, this kit ensures a more planted and secure feel, especially during hard acceleration, braking, and cornering. The rods feature a hex design for easy adjustments, making it an ideal upgrade for those running larger wheels and tires.

• Improved Stability: Eliminates flex under acceleration, braking, and cornering for a more secure feel.
• High-Quality Materials: Teflon-coated, machined steel rod ends and billet aluminum rods.
• Adjustable Design: Hex machined center rods for easy adjustment.
• Enhanced Handling: Reduces vagueness and provides a more planted driving experience.
• Ideal for Upgrades: Recommended for use with larger wheels and tires.
• Turner Motorsport Quality: Trusted performance parts backed by over 35 years of BMW tuning expertise.

When an E9X is lowered beyond the limits of just lowering springs, the rear wheels toe-in excessively. This excessive rear toe leads to premature wear, that many people attribute to an increase in negative camber. It has become a common belief that an extremely low vehicle will wear the tires wrong as a matter of consequence. It has become standard practice to go as low as you can and proceed to replace your tires every five to ten thousand miles. Whats more is that when the vehicle reaches a certain ride height, the factory arms become maxed out and there is no way to compensate and dial in the proper toe. You're left with an improperly aligned vehicle that is in effect worse off than it was with the stock suspension installed.

This is not only uneconomical but improper and unsafe. ECS Tuning is proud to offer a solution for this problem in the form of Rogue Engineering E9X adjustable rear toe arms. These arms allow for greater toe adjustment on vehicles that have been lowered with a coilover suspension. With the toe set properly the tires can contact the road properly this maximizes grip and minimizes wear. 

Features:

• 100% machined and anodized, 6061-T6 lightweight aluminum arms
• High-strength, 3-piece, rod end (with carbon fiber reinforced, PTFE race) offers longer life for street compared to standard rod ends
• SEALS-IT Rod end seals keep dirt, water, and other contaminants out
• Rod ends feature grease fittings, to allow for rod end serviceability.
• Lighter than stock!  (Stock is 875g, RE arms are 640g)
• Extremely easy installation and adjustment (your alignment shop will LOVE you!)

Dinan's high-performance Rear Suspension Link Kit adds precision and predictability at the limit.

The stock rear toe link setup is built with rubber bushings and a curved forged alloy rod which can easily flex. During hard acceleration and braking, this flex allows the rear wheels to have excessive toe change which ultimately causes the car to be unstable. Dinan stops the flex by replacing the rubber bushings with Teflon-lined machined steel rod ends that significantly reduce pliability while also swapping out the OEM curved bar with a stouter billet aluminum arm, thus adding stability. Like the rear toe links, the stock front trailing links also incorporate rubber bushings. Flex in these bushings allows the rear wheels to behave sloppily under heavy loads. Dinan adds precision by replacing these links with billet aluminum arms and precision ball joints just like the ones found in the Dinan front monoball kit.

Have confidence in your F90 M5 when pushing the envelope without worry of erratic suspension play or sacrificing ride quality and comfort. Whether it be at the drag strip doing quarter mile runs or simply getting the jump off the line at a stop light the end result with Dinan's Rear Suspension Link Kit is a more stable and planted driving experience when pushing the car to its limits.

Benefits of the Dinan Rear Suspension Link Kit for the BMW F90 M5:

Replaces the stock rear toe link & rubber bushings with a precision machined black-anodized aluminum arm and racing-quality rod ends.
Rod-ends are Teflon-lined for quiet operation.
Rubber boots protect rod ends from environmental damage for long-lasting performance and removes the need for constant cleaning.
Replaces the stock forward lower trailing link & rubber bushings with a precision machined black-anodized aluminum arm and precision ball joints.
Bearings are nylon-lined for quiet operation.
Dramatically improves vehicle stability during hard cornering.
Improves response by eliminating the deflection of the rubber bushings.
