Product Details

This Whiteline Front Lower Inner Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 1995-1999 BMW 318ti. Part number W81364. Application note: Lower inner rear bushing. Standard replacement. Position: front. You receive 2 shell bushings.

Every time the wheel moves, the control arm swings on its bushings. When they are soft or worn, the arm shifts under load, the alignment changes as the car moves, and steering and braking feel less precise. A stiffer bushing cuts that unwanted movement while still letting the arm pivot freely. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.

Expect a difficult job of about 2.5 hours. An alignment is required after installation. To go with it on the 318ti, see 27mm Front Sway Bar Bushing Kit and Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arm Set.
