Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Control Arm Lower Inner Bushing fits the 1999-2000 BMW 323ti 3 Series. Order it as part number W62625. It goes on the rear of the vehicle. The kit contains 2 shell bushings and 2 tubes.
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. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Expect a difficult job of about 4 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. To go with it on the 323ti 3 Series, see Front Strut Tower Brace Quick Release Kit, Rear Sway Bar Mount Bushing Kit, and Heavy Duty Blade Adjustable 27mm Front Sway Bar (Models w/ Control Arm Link Mount).
Features
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Bonded design: Bonding adds durability in high-load use.
- Bushing compound: The elastomer formulation is chosen to shrug off oil, grease, ozone, and the elements.
- Corrosion protection: Metal parts are plated to resist rust over the long term.
- Grease: Supplied with molybdenum disulfide grease for extended service life.
