The SPL Parts Rear Spherical Upper Arm Bushing Kit for the 1994-1999 BMW M3 (E36) is a high-performance upgrade designed to enhance suspension precision and handling. This kit replaces the stock rubber bushings with low-friction spherical bearings, which eliminate bushing flex and reduce bind and friction during cornering and load transfer. Constructed with FK Racing Bearings featuring a self-lubricating Teflon liner, these monoball bushings provide long-lasting durability and consistent performance. The upgrade maintains optimal suspension geometry under load, resulting in improved steering feedback, increased responsiveness, and better overall vehicle control.
Designed specifically for the E36 chassis, this bushing kit is a direct replacement for the rear upper arms on the 1994-1999 BMW M3. It is suitable for street and track use, offering a significant upgrade over stock components by reducing camber and toe change under load. Installation is a bolt-on process, compatible with the original mounting points, and does not require additional modifications. This kit is ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved handling characteristics and precise suspension tuning for spirited driving or competitive motorsport applications.

Overview
SPL Parts FKS Series Rear Upper Arm Bushings (RKB) for the 1992-1995 BMW 320i (E36) replace the stock mushy rubber bushings with low-friction articulating spherical bearings, eliminating bushing flex and reducing bind/friction. This maintains optimum suspension geometry under load to improve handling and feedback, and removes any camber and toe change that can occur under load. Our Monoball Bushings feature FK Racing Bearings with a self lubricating Teflon liner for long life and maximum performance. Highly precise (machined to 1/1000th inch) CNC machined T6061 Aluminum bearing shells provide an accurate fit. Sold as complete kit for one car. Made in the USA.
