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.

Key Benefits:

Improved Handling: Experience more precise and responsive steering, giving your BMW a sportier feel. Increased Durability: Our control arms are much sturdier than factory units, ensuring long-lasting performance. Negative Camber Adjustment: Adds approximately 0.75 degrees of negative camber to the front, enhancing cornering grip and stability. Complete Kit: Includes all four M3-specific lower control arms with mounting hardware. M3 Headlight Leveling Rod: Necessary for proper installation, ensuring your headlights are correctly aligned. Important Note for Z4 Models: For Z4 owners, please be aware that the M3 headlight level sensor rod is positioned differently.

Don't let poor road or track conditions affect your vehicle's alignment, leading to excessive tire wear and compromised handling. Improve your suspension and achieve precise alignment with Godspeed Project's rear camber arms!

These camber arms enhance stability at high speeds, thanks to their precise alignment adjustments. The solid spherical bushings resist wear and outperform conventional rubber bushings. With heat-treated ball and hard chrome plated alloy steel construction, these camber arms offer exceptional strength and durability.

This cost-effective performance upgrade provides extended adjustment ranges, versatility, and improved road feel, thanks to their solid design. It's important to note that realignment is recommended after installation, and these camber arms are ideal for "Track Use Only" due to the increased road noise and vibration caused by solid bushings.

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. 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. For a street-driven car we advise yearly inspection and a full replacement every 3-4 years. For track-driven cars these should be inspected before every event and replaced every two years.

This control arm is an aftermarket OEM alternative part that comes with a 1-year warranty. They use the same designs as the original BMW parts on your car so they meet OEM standards for fitment and operation. We have compared these parts to the Genuine BMW and OEM brands and found few differences. This package is an unbeatable money-saving bundle to restore your E34's precise handling and steering. We also offer all of the OE or OEM brands if you are more comfortable with those levels of quality and performance or are planning to track or autocross your car (the cast components of the aftermarket kit will not be as good as the OEM parts on the track).

The aftermarket arm has the bushing pre-installed. The OEM and BMW arms include the bushing but it must be pressed into the arm by a qualified technician.

This item fits the following BMWs:
1989-1995 E34 BMW 525i 530i 535i 540i (Sedan and Touring)

Over time, road conditions can significantly impact your vehicle's suspension system. Factors like potholes, speed bumps, and other road hazards contribute to wear and tear, resulting in a less responsive and weaker suspension. Enhance your driving experience by regularly replacing worn components to improve safety and ride comfort.

When replacing parts in your front or rear suspension, it's advisable to change them in pairs (both left and right sides) or focus on inspecting components prone to failure. This approach maximizes the longevity of replacement parts and ensures optimal performance across the suspension system.
