Replace a worn front left lower control arm and its ball joint in one job with the Beck/Arnley control arm 102-7662, built to match OE form, fit and function. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2017-2021 BMW 230i, 2017-2021 BMW M240i and 2017-2020 BMW 430i; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

The lower control arm connects the wheel's steering knuckle to the chassis. It lets the wheel move up and down with the suspension while holding it in position. The ball joint is the pivot that lets the knuckle move as the suspension travels and the wheels steer. Beck/Arnley supplies this control arm and ball joint assembly as one unit, so both are replaced at the same time.
