The SPL Parts Rear Spherical Lower Control Arm Bushing Set is a high-performance upgrade designed for the 2014-2018 BMW 328d xDrive (F30/F31). This set replaces the factory rubber bushings that connect the lower control arm to the knuckle with precision-engineered, teflon-lined spherical bearings. The use of spherical bearings significantly reduces deflection under heavy loads and minimizes binding as the suspension moves through its range of motion. Constructed with large FK bearings housed in machined aluminum housings, these bushings enhance durability, improve handling response, and lower NVH levels, making them ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved suspension performance.

Specifically designed for the F30/F31 chassis, these bushings are a direct replacement for the OEM components, ensuring a straightforward installation process. They are suitable for street and track use, providing increased stability and more precise control during aggressive driving or spirited cornering. The kit includes all necessary components for installation, offering a reliable upgrade for those looking to optimize their vehicle’s suspension geometry. Compatible with 2014-2018 BMW 328d xDrive models, these bushings are an excellent choice for improving handling characteristics and suspension responsiveness.

Overview

These Rear Lower Control Arm Knuckle Bushing for the 2006-2011 BMW 323i (E90) 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.

Standard Features

  • Enhanced Handling Precision: Provides superior steering response and control by minimizing deflection and ensuring a more direct connection between the suspension components.
  • Durable Materials: Typically made from high-strength metals and bearings, offering resistance to wear, heat, and fatigue under demanding driving conditions.
  • Improved Suspension Geometry: Maintains optimal alignment and stability, contributing to better cornering performance and overall handling.
  • Reduced Noise and Vibration: Designed to minimize noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), providing a more comfortable driving experience without sacrificing performance.
  • Easy Installation: Generally designed as a direct replacement for factory bushings, making installation straightforward with common tools and minimal modifications.
