Product Details
Looking for a front control arm bushing for your 2009-2011 BMW 335d 3 Series (E90)? The Whiteline Front Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit (46.1mm OD) is made for it. In the box: 2 bushings, 2 tubes, 2 bolts, and 2 nuts. This part is for the front of the vehicle. Application note: Adds 0.5 degrees Camber. Part number KCA431.
Camber is the sideways lean of the wheel when viewed from the front. An offset control arm bushing places the pivot slightly off-center, which shifts the wheel's camber by a small, fixed amount without replacing the arm. On a lowered car that is often enough to bring the tires back toward an even footprint.
Whiteline rates the install as difficult and lists about 2.5 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the 335d 3 Series, see Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, Rear Subframe Mount Bushing, and Front and Rear Essential Vehicle Kit.
