The Powerflex Rear Beam Bushing for the BMW E30 3 Series (1984-1991) is designed to enhance the performance and handling characteristics of this classic vehicle by replacing the stock rubber bushings with high-quality polyurethane alternatives.
Durable Polyurethane Construction: Powerflex bushings are crafted from high-performance polyurethane, which provides superior durability compared to OEM rubber. This material is resistant to wear from heat, oil, and road conditions, ensuring longevity and consistent performance over time.
Enhanced Handling and Stability: By minimizing flex and movement in the rear suspension, Powerflex bushings significantly improve the stability of the rear end during acceleration and cornering. This results in sharper handling, better grip, and an overall more responsive driving experience.
Performance Options:
Direct Fitment: These bushings are designed as direct replacements for the OEM bushings, ensuring a straightforward installation process. Replacing worn bushings with Powerflex units can restore and even enhance the handling characteristics of the E30.
Longevity and Reliability: The robust construction of Powerflex bushings means they can withstand the rigors of both daily driving and high-performance use. They are less likely to degrade or crack over time, offering a reliable long-term solution for E30 owners.
Upgrading to Powerflex Rear Beam Bushings is an excellent investment for BMW E30 enthusiasts looking to improve their vehicle's handling, stability, and overall driving experience. Whether for spirited driving on winding roads or for participation in motorsport events, these bushings provide a significant enhancement in performance, making the classic E30 feel more agile and responsive.

Control arm bushings play a key role in connecting the wheels to the chassis of the vehicle. Tasked with keeping suspension geometry in check while absorbing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) factory rubber bushings were engineered to provide a balance of comfort and control. As a factory bushing ages, it becomes brittle and begins to harden. When this happens the bushing will actually shrink and allow excess play in the suspension joint. This is typically felt by a sudden jerk forward after the car comes to a stop and is a leading cause of "sloppy" or "loose" suspension feel. By replacing the bushing with a full polyurethane unit or using a bushing insert, this play is eliminated since the suspension joint is being supported by a much stiffer material that will not harden or shrink over time. Additionally, the inherent stiffness of the urethane material translates body forces much more directly. This means steering inputs from the driver are effectively transferred to the wheels and vital road information is transmitted properly from the wheels to the driver.
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 steering feel, turn in, more responsive handling and overall improved chassis composure with Powerflex performance polyurethane control arm bushings.

Sway bars transmit cornering forces from the outside wheels to the inside wheels, helping to keep the vehicle flat during cornering. This, in turn, reduces body roll and improves the driver's cornering confidence. OEM rubber sway bar bushings are designed with comfort in mind, allowing the sway bar to articulate while permitting additional movement, leading to less-than-ideal bar retention and causes unnecessary body roll.
Powerflex polyurethane sway bar bushings are firmer than factory rubber bushings, reducing body roll and keeping sway bars in check. Polyurethane bushings won't slop around like OEM bushings, allowing sway bars to function at their fullest potential.
