Product Details
This Whiteline Front Lower Inner Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit - Double Offset fits the 2001-2006 BMW 330i. It goes on the front of the vehicle. Included: 2 shell bushings and 2 bushings. The part number is W52606. The chassis code on the listing is E46. Whiteline's note for this fit: Lower inner rear bushing (caster correction). Adds .5 degrees caster.
A standard bushing only restores what the factory built. This one is designed to change the geometry, adding positive caster and changing front anti-dive behavior, in addition to resisting the deflection that soft rubber allows.
Expect a difficult job of about 2.5 hours. An alignment is required after installation. Other Whiteline parts we list for the 330i: Rear Differential Bushing Kit, 20mm Rear Sway Bar Bushing Kit, and 27mm Sway Bar Mount Bushing Kit.
Features
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Easy to fit: Installation does not call for special skills or tools.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease comes with it for a longer service life.
- Material: Polyurethane construction.
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
