Product Details

This Whiteline Front Lower Inner Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 1996-2002 BMW Z3. You receive 2 shell bushings. Position: front. It is listed for the E36/7/E36/8 chassis. Order it as part number W81364. Whiteline's note for this fit: Lower inner rear bushing. Standard replacement.

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.

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 Front Sway Bar Bushing Kit for the BMW Z3.

Features

  • Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
  • Grease: Moly grease is supplied to prolong the life of the parts.
  • Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
  • Easy to fit: Designed for an easy install with ordinary shop equipment.
  • Install guide: An install guide comes in the box.
  • Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
