Lower Control Arms
Hi fellow members,
After 170,000 miles, I decided to replace the lower control arms instead of just replacing the bushings in the arms. To save a few bucks, I installed Beck Arnley lower control arms from rock auto. Big mistake. The bushings were Totally thrashed after only four months, cracked and making a horrible crunking sound after significant stops. Replaced with OEM Lemforder from OEMBimmerparts.com. FYI.
