SPL Parts BMW Control Arm Replacements & Upgrades

Control arms, and their integrated ball joints, are some of the most crucial components on a BMW suspension. The control arms literally control the wheel and suspension as they go through their range of motions. They do more than just keep the alignment in a constant spec - they are a vital locating component for the suspension itself. A faulty or worn control arm or ball joint is a very dangerous and potentially life-threatening problem so make sure they are inspected and replaced at regular intervals.

Most control arms for BMWs consist of an inner and outer ball joint made of plastic, rubber, Delrin, or metal and covered in grease with a rubber boot to seal it from the outside. The ball joint rotates and spins as the control arm goes through its movements and that will wear the ball joint and make it loose. The grease inside the housing can also get used up, evaporate, or become contaminated from moisture and foreign particles. As the ball joint becomes worn it can result in excess movement within the housing. Your steering and handling will become less precise and there is usually a light clunking or clicking sound. In rare and extreme cases the ball joint can separate from the control arm completely, leading to a total loss of suspension and steering control. You should have the ball joint play checked annually and replace them every 3-4 years. Most track organizations will not allow a car if they are older than three years.

Control arms also take abuse from impacts and handling forces. Aluminum control arms will generally bend and prevent an accurate alignment. Steel control arms will crack and fracture and require close inspection annually and replacement every 3-4 years.

We sell OE BMW, OEM, and performance upgrade control arms from proven manufacturers. The control arm is so important to a BMW suspension that we insist on only top quality brands and designs and will never sell a control arm based on price alone. We also have upgrade packages with superior designs and better bushing options and we have bundled these together with valuable package savings.

These Rear Lower Control Arm Knuckle Bushing replace the rubber factory bushing attaching the lower control arm to the knuckle with a low friction teflon-lined spherical bearing.

The housing for the bearing is machined out of 6061-T6 aluminum and is CNC cut to +/- .001" tolerance to insure proper fitment. Sold as a pair. Made in the USA.

The SPL BMW G2X Front Lower Control Arms (FLCA) provide roll center, camber, and track width adjustment for the G2X BMWs (M340i, M440i, etc) while eliminating bushing deflection resulting in sharpened steering response and driving precision. The ability to run more negative camber and a slightly wider track width greatly improves the peak lateral grip available. This is especially important with better tires and a must-have for anyone looking to prevent excessive outer shoulder wear (and heating) on their tires due to a lack of camber. The lower control arms come with a ride height sensor bracket to maintain factory ride height sensor location, regardless of length of the arm to keep those finicky BMW chassis electronics happy. Suitable for all uses, from daily driver to race car. Benefits Adjustable Camber, Roll Center, and Track Width Eliminates Bushing Deflection Improved Tire Life with Ideal Camber Settings Lightweight, High-Strength Construction Stackable 304SS Roll Center Spacers in 1/8" and 1/4" Sizes US Made, PTFE Lined FK Rod Ends Materials 6061-T6 aluminum black anodized arm, clamps, and spacers 4130 CrMo electroless nickel plated double adjuster Ti6Al4V titanium socket head cap screws 304 stainless steel roll center and knuckle spacer 5/8" 4140 CrMo stud FK PTFE-lined spherical bearings (F1 spec, self-cleaning)
