Beck/Arnley Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:102-8243
Locate the front wheel and allow it to pivot and travel with the Beck/Arnley Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly 102-6439. This front left lower unit is designed as a direct replacement for the listed applications — the 2001-2005 BMW 325XI and 2001-2005 BMW 330XI — with the control arm and its ball joint supplied together for a complete corner. The arm connects the suspension to the steering knuckle, while the integrated ball joint provides the pivoting connection that lets the wheel steer and move through suspension travel.
Signs the original may need replacing include clunking on acceleration, deceleration, or over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and cracked or separated bushings. Replacing worn components on both sides is good practice for balanced handling. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details and full fitment.
