What It Helps Address

• Rear suspension looseness or imprecise handling
• Uneven rear tire wear caused by worn control arm bushings
• Noises from deteriorated rear suspension bushings
• Loss of factory ride control at the rear right lower position
• Need for an OE-style replacement on BMW rear suspension systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Install GS101178 at the rear right lower position only on the BMW models listed in the fitment data. Because this control arm is non-adjustable, verify the vehicle application before installation and inspect related rear suspension components, fasteners, and alignment settings during service. The included bushings are rubber, which helps maintain factory-style isolation and ride feel.

Quality Assurance

Mevotech Original Grade parts are built as OE-style replacements for fit, form, and function. GS101178 is designed to match the original manufacturer specification for the listed BMW applications and to restore normal suspension operation after replacement.
