Product Description

This Arrowhead control arm bush is designed for the front axle lower left and right positions, providing essential support where the control arm connects to the chassis. It plays a crucial role in the steering, suspension, and axle system by absorbing road shocks and reducing vibration, ensuring a smoother and more controlled drive.

Engineered specifically for BMW models, this control arm bush is suitable for selected X5 and X6 vehicles. Proper fitment is vital for maintaining the alignment and stability of your vehicle's suspension system.

Common symptoms of a worn control arm bush include increased vibration, uneven tyre wear, clunking noises from the suspension, and poor handling or steering response. If you notice any of these issues, it may be time to inspect and replace the bushings.

Replacement is recommended if you experience deteriorating ride comfort, excessive play in the suspension, or visible wear and cracking on the bush. Timely replacement helps maintain optimal handling and extends the life of related suspension components.

Order your Arrowhead control arm bush from MiMi Auto Parts for reliable fitment and quality. We offer nationwide delivery throughout South Africa. Always confirm your BMW's model, year, engine size, and engine code before placing your order.
