BMW E31 Upper Rear Wishbone Ball Joint Bushing (Pair) provides an efficient and affordable solution for replacing the ball joint bushings in the upper rear control arm of your BMW E31. Unlike the costly full control arm replacement offered by BMW, this bushing set offers high-quality performance at a fraction of the price.
This bushing pair features a well-engineered rubber boot that has been designed to sit flush with the metal surface of the bushing, allowing for easy installation using standard press tools or a socket. The innovative design eliminates the need for a custom press tool and helps prevent damage to the boot during installation.
Made from durable polyurethane rubber, these bushings are built to withstand the elements and provide long-lasting performance. With OEM-level precision, they ensure a perfect fit and hassle-free, plug-and-play installation on the BMW E31.

These bushings have the hole off-center to give your car a little more track, caster, and camber. This style came as standard equipment on E30 M3s (8/89-later) and 1995 E36 M3 but will work with any E30, E36, Z3.
Rubber control arm bushings are designed to flex and absorb energy. That's fine on a streetcar but on an all-out racing machine you want your alignment to stay constant. We have picked Delrin for this application due to its high rigidity and low coefficient of friction allowing for minimal suspension bushing deflection (geometry change) but decreasing bushing windup or drag (friction). They are not recommended for street-use but highly-recommended for track cars.
To save time, pick up a pair of new bushing carrier brackets and hardware. This will save you the time and hassle of pressing out the old bushings. This will especially save you time if you're buying new control arms at the same time (no time wasted removing the old brackets from the arms). Stainless steel set screws included.
BMW E31 Lower Ball Joint Bushing is an essential upgrade for ensuring the long-term performance of your BMW’s suspension system. The original ball joint bushings supplied by BMW, specifically the Lemforder bushings, often suffer from premature cracking due to their weak, transparent plastic boots. This deterioration allows dirt and grime to infiltrate, ultimately damaging the bushings and affecting your vehicle's suspension. The new bushing solution uses advanced polyurethane rubber, known for its ability to resist wear and tear from the elements, providing lasting durability.
Engineered with precision, the BMW E31 Lower Ball Joint Bushing is designed specifically to fit the E31 platform, ensuring it handles the vehicle's weight without compromise. The bushing features OEM dimensions for seamless installation, making it a plug-and-play replacement that requires no additional modifications.
