Description
Powerflex Front Control Arm Bushings for 2001–2006 BMW M3 (E46).
Function and design
These are the M3-specific front control arm bushings for the corresponding E46 mounting arrangement. They are separate from the standard E46 3 Series and Xi applications.
Application
2001–2006 BMW M3 (E46).
Intended-use restriction
Powerflex does not recommend this product design for track or competition use. The availability of a Black Series variant does not remove that restriction. For that intended use, Powerflex identifies PFF5-5601M3 as an alternative, or PFF5-5601GM3BLK where more caster is required. These are separate products.
Choose your series
- Street: the road-oriented series; compound selection depends on the individual application.
- Heritage: road-oriented polyurethane in a dark grey appearance intended to resemble original rubber.
- Black Series: offered in this product family, but the track/competition restriction stated above remains applicable.
