Product Information

Replaces all front control arms in a convenient kit comprised of Lemforder tension struts and lower wishbones

Your E38's front suspension is comprised of numerous individual pieces. The tension struts and the lower wishbones essentially build the foundation of the front suspension. The two areas where they components have been notorious for wear is tension strut hydro bushing failure and outer ball joint failure. Worn bushings and ball joints are normal on a higher mileage BMW. Afterall, the suspension takes the abuse from the road. If you have more than 80,000 miles on your E38 and still have the original control arms you should consider replacing all control arms.

Suspension Control Arm Kit

Control arms are crucial link in a vehicle's suspension connecting the suspension to a vehicle's subframe. These pieces are usually hinged to allow for suspension to travel and articulate as the vehicle rides over obstructions in the road and while the vehicle turns. Many vehicles such as those with independent suspensions have multiple links and feature several connection points and arms to offer better ride quality and comfort.

As bushings and joints in a control arm begin to wear you may notice a looseness feel in your suspension. And while many arms have replaceable and serviceable individual components, many still require the replacement of the entire arm. Below are signs of when a replacement control arm may be needed.

Suspension Control Arm Kit Failure Symptoms
  • Play in suspension joints where these arms meet the subframe and/or knuckle
  • Buckling noise emanating from the suspension
  • Uneven tire wear
  • Inability to properly align vehicle
  • Shutter or vibration coming from the steering wheel at highway speed
  • Wandering or pulling sensation from side to side felt on the steering wheel

Not made in Germany and you can tell....
I have always used Lem-FORD-er on my cars. My e60 suspension is amazing with Lemforder on it.... NOT These. I go to up the right control arm on and outta the bag the dust boot is ripped! FCP is a great company, they take returns and I hardly buy parts anywhere else, but inspect your parts. The rumors of lower quality with Lemforder out of Malaysia are true.
