The SPL Parts Rear Spherical Knuckle Bushing Kit is a high-performance upgrade designed for the 2014-2018 BMW 328d (F30/F31). This kit replaces the factory rubber bushing that attaches the lower control arm to the knuckle with a low-friction, Teflon-lined spherical bearing, enhancing suspension response and durability. Constructed with a machined housing and the largest FK bearing possible, it reduces deflection under heavy loads and minimizes bind during suspension travel. The design aims to improve handling precision, reduce NVH, and provide a more direct connection between suspension components, making it ideal for spirited driving and track use.

This bushing kit is specifically engineered for the F30/F31 chassis within the 2014-2018 model years, offering a direct replacement for the OEM component. It is suitable for street, track, and performance driving applications where improved suspension articulation and responsiveness are desired. Installation involves replacing the existing rubber bushing with the spherical bearing assembly, ensuring a secure fit and long-lasting performance. The kit includes all necessary components for a straightforward upgrade, providing enhanced control and stability for BMW enthusiasts seeking a more aggressive driving experience.

Overview

These Rear Traction Arm Knuckle Bushing for the 2012-2015 BMW 335i (F30) replace the rubber factory bushing attaching the lower control arm to the knuckle with a low friction teflon-lined spherical bearing. Replacing the OEM component with this bushing will allow for less deflection under heavy load, and less bind as the arm travels through its suspension. We use the largest possible FK bearing in this location for increased longevity and lower NVH. The housing for the bearing is machined out of 6061-T6 aluminum and is CNC cut to +/- .001" tolerance to insure proper fitment.

Made in the USA.
