Review on Lemforder OEM 17978 01, 31 12 6 783 376 Control Arm Bushing Kit Set for Front Suspension by Brandon Henry

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit for E46 Coupe - used double lever puller and carpenter's clamp

This part fits perfectly. The old part was worn out and the car made a faint suspension rattle when I hit bumps. Even with heavy pressure on the brake when entering, you could see how the wheels noticeably jumped forward. I pulled off the old part in two steps with a two-lever puller. First the outer part loosened and peeled off, then I peeled off the remaining inner part. I used a carpenter's clamp to install, which worked like a charm (I tried a hammer first but forgot, a clamp is a million times better). Now the car drives like new.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of fashion
