Rear Control Arm

ALTA Rear Control Arms are the ultimate upgrade for your MINI, replacing your rear lateral links with a solid and performance-focused design. These control arms enhance traction and handling while giving you precise control over camber and toe settings. The flexibility of ALTA control arms allows for fine-tuning without the hassle of removing and reinstalling the linkage. Simply adjust the lock nuts and twist the center section to achieve your desired settings.

These control arms are the perfect complement to other suspension products like springs, coilovers, or sway bars.

Key Features of ALTA Rear Control Arms:

• CNC machined from 6061 aluminum rod for durability.
• Heavy texture powder coating for corrosion resistance and added style.
• Teflon-lined spherical rod ends for a solid connection and improved articulation.
• Aircraft-quality spherical bearings for smooth and precise movement.
• Injected Nylon around the ball center for quiet operation as the part ages.

For a comprehensive rear end upgrade, consider purchasing two sets of control arms to replace both upper and lower control arms. This minimizes deflection from the OEM rubber bushings and reduces weight. Please note that on models with Xenon-style headlamps, some modifications to the leveling sensor mounting may be necessary. For additional details, consult your ALTA dealer or our Tech Department.

ALTA Rear Control Arms come with high-quality hardware, including corrosion-resistant spacers and Grade 8 adjustment nuts.

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!)

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.
