Rear Trailing Arm Bushing (RTAB), OEM - E36, E46, E83, E85, E86, E89

This bushing is a direct OEM replacement for the stock upper and lower bushings at the back of the rear trailing arm in all E36, E46, E85 Z4, and E89 Z4.

This OEM bushing is a sealed monoball ball joint originally used on the E36 M3, E46 M3, and Z4M models. It's an upgrade for all non-M E36, E46, and Z4 models. The ball joint design is superior to a rubber bushing used on non-M cars as it allows the trailing and control arms to rotate freely without having bushing deflection. This keeps your alignment in spec even during hard cornering, unlike stock rubber bushings. Unlike race monoball bearings these are sealed with rubber boots on both ends. This keeps dust and debris out and retains the grease inside. With sealed ends these bearings last a lot longer than rubber or urethane bushings.

This is an OEM rear ball joint manufactured by an original supplier to BMW for this part, as well as many other bushings and mounts. As the OEM it meets all of BMW's original design, fitment, and performance requirements and is TUV approved. OEM parts are the best alternative to more expensive Original BMW parts because they are virtually identical without the inflated price tag. This part has a two year warranty.
