Description

This direct-replacement Front Upper Control Arm (Front Right Position / Upper Thrust Strut Tension Strut) is engineered specifically for BMW 3 Series (F30 Sedan, F31 Touring, F34 Gran Turismo) and 4 Series (F32 Coupe, F33 Convertible, F36 Gran Coupe) models equipped with rear-wheel drive (RWD) sold in South Africa. Precision-forged from high-strength aluminum alloy and pre-fitted with a heavy-duty hydraulic rubber bushing (hydro-bushing) and outer ball joint, it forms the critical upper front suspension tracking link. Over time, original front upper control arms experience hydraulic fluid leakage from the main rubber bushing, outer ball joint play, and metal fatigue, resulting in front-end steering shudder under braking, vehicle pulling, uneven tire edge wear, and clunking noises over bumps. Built to exact original equipment tolerances, it restores crisp steering feedback, directional stability, and factory ride refinement.

Application Note: Direct bolt-on front axle upper control arm fitted on the right-hand (RH / Driver Side) front suspension. Fits Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD / sDrive) models only; excludes xDrive 4WD models. Always replace front suspension control arms in pairs (LH & RH simultaneously). Important: Final tightening of the inner rubber bushing bolt must be performed with the vehicle lowered on its wheels at normal ride height to avoid pre-loading and tearing the internal hydro-bushing. A 4-wheel alignment check is recommended post-installation.
