This part fits into original bracket and fits M3 vehicles that have a thicker wishbone. Powerflex Alloy Outer Centered Front Control Arm Bushings are a high performance option to standard Front Control Arm Bushings, and aimed at offering greater precision for people wanting the very best from their E46 M3. This new part, fitted to the rear of the front wishbone has a hard anodized aluminum outer shell with one of our unique low friction polyurethane center bushings. The poly/aluminum combination creates a low friction rotating bushing reducing the forces acting on the arm. Lower arm deflection has been decreased by reducing the compliant material within the aluminum shell. Results are less movement in the arm under cornering and braking, improving steering control and feel. For the M3 models which have a thicker wishbone. Please ensure you have the correct size bushing before fitting.
