Product Details
This Whiteline Front Lower Inner Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit - Double Offset fits the 2003-2008 BMW Z4. It is listed for the E85/E86 chassis. This part is for the front of the vehicle. Part number W52606. Whiteline's note for this fit: Lower inner rear bushing (caster correction). Adds .5 degrees caster. In the box: 2 shell bushings and 2 bushings.
This kit does more than replace rubber. Its offset design moves the pivot point of the lower control arm to add positive caster and change how the front end resists dive under braking, which improves straight-line stability and turn-in feel.
Whiteline rates the install as difficult and lists about 2.5 hours. An alignment is required after installation. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Rear Trailing Arm Lower Front Bushing for the BMW Z4.
Features

- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease is included to help the parts last.
