Replacing control arm bushings on BMW ER46
Pull off the inner sleeve of the old control arm bushing that is worn out.
Use an impact gun to pull off the component.
Press the inner component onto the control arm.
Urethane bushings have outer housing that pushes into the bracket and the inner pivot sleeve which eventually pushes onto the control arm. That presses inside the bushing.
The original factory unit only has a few contact pieces and once they rip out you get tons of movement in your wheels.
Replacement bushings are usually an upgrade to the factory ones.
Usually a little firmer drive but not noticeable to the average driver.
