Powerflex E30/E36 3 Series Front Control Arm Bushings

This bushing set is the 2 piece construction. The bushings are made in 2 pieces so the rotation happens between the urethane for a squeak free, easily lubricated bushing with a considerably increased lifespan. The inner bushing is grooved to hold the copper based lube (supplied with kit) for numerous years.

Powerflex control arm bushings are offered in 2 different versions, Centered or Offset. Offset control arm bushings came stock in the E30 M3 and 1995 M3. We suggest the offset version for these models along with any car that encounters high speed performance driving. The offset bushing increases suspension caster aiding in high speed stability, but is not necessary for street cars and autocross cars because of the lack of high speed driving.  The centered bushing offers less caster, which can be an asset for low speed turn in, which is typically where the street and auto-x cars perform.

Both versions are made using black 95A urethane. Minimal NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) is increased with this bushing set.

Slight modification needs to be made to the offset version when being used with either the Meyle HD or BMW E30 M3 aluminum arms. The "ear" that aligns the inner bushing is larger than standard steel arms and will not fit properly without slightly enlarging the bushings. This is a very easy modification.
