Lemforder Suspension Control Arm Bushing P/N:21383 01
Keep the rear trailing arm located and cushion suspension loads with the LEMFORDER control arm bushing (P/N 3493301), cataloged by LEMFORDER as a Trailing Arm Mounting. This suspension control arm bushing drops in as a direct-fit replacement for a long list of BMW applications, including the 2004-2007 525I, 2008-2010 528I, 2004-2007 530I, 2006-2010 550I, 2000-2006 X5, and 2006-2010 M5 and M6. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered models and years.
A worn control arm bushing can produce clunking or knocking from the rear, imprecise handling, or uneven tire wear; if a failed bushing is the cause, this replaces it. Sold individually — because the left and right sides wear at a similar rate, replacing both together is recommended for balanced rear-suspension response.

What are the signs this bushing may need replacing?
Clunking or knocking from the rear, vague or imprecise handling, and uneven tire wear can indicate a worn bushing. Diagnose the cause first, since these symptoms can have other sources.
Is it sold individually or as a pair?
This listing is for one bushing, sold individually. Since the left and right sides wear at a similar rate, replacing both together is recommended for balanced rear-suspension response.
