Description
Whiteline W82977 provides front radius rod to chassis bushing kit for 96-04 BMW 5 Series E39 / 93-01 BMW 7 Series E38.
How It Works
Control arm bushings locate the arm while accommodating its movement. Their compliance affects how closely the suspension maintains its intended alignment as braking, cornering and road loads change. The exact mounting location matters: inner, outer, forward and rearward bushings perform different roles and are not interchangeable simply because they fit the same vehicle.
Key Specifications
- Manufacturer part number: W82977

Installation & Selection
Inspect the arm, housing, sleeves and adjacent joints before fitting. Use appropriate support and pressing equipment where required, and follow the specified orientation for offset or shaped bushings. Check alignment after installation, especially when the part changes an alignment adjustment or replaces a deteriorated mounting point.
