Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:CMS101112
Keep the rear suspension located and tracking true with the Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly (CMS101064). This suspension trailing arm drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the rear right lower position on the 2001-2003 BMW 525I, 2001-2003 BMW 530I, 1997-2003 BMW 540I, 1997-2000 BMW 528I, and 2000-2003 BMW M5 (all engines). It positions the rear wheel and reacts road and cornering loads, while the integrated ball joint manages articulation as the suspension travels.
A worn arm or ball joint can show up as clunking or knocking from the rear, imprecise or wandering handling, and uneven tire wear. If a failed lateral arm or its ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces it. Diagnose the source before ordering, and replace suspension wear parts in matched sets where appropriate for balanced handling.
