SPL Front Lower Control Arms E9X E8X M and None M

SPL front lower control arms provide roll center, camber and track width adjustment for the E9X and E8X BMWs and allow for full articulation with the correct ball joint angle. No more jam nuts!! Long gone are the days of fumbling with multiple wrenches to tighten jam nuts in place while trying to keep your bearings orientated correctly. The main arm is slotted to allow the use of pinch bolts and our rotating clamps on our exclusive hybrid adjuster lock down camber and track width settings. Our hybrid double adjuster is machined from 4130 chromoly and is electroless nickel plated for corrosion resistance. Blue anodized titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms without compromising strength. Stainless steel spacers are provided to correct roll center for lowered vehicles. The use of FK rod ends and high misalignment spherical bearings eliminates the flex and binding found in the OEM control arms while allowing smooth articulation. The street version includes the headlight adjusting rod.

SPL Billet Lower Control/Trailing Arms Feature:
• Lightweight Aluminum, Titanium, Chromoly and Stainless Steel construction
• Correct ball joint angle for full articulation
• Clamp design allows for easy access to lock down your alignment settings
• Low friction 3 piece Teflon lined FK sphericals and Heim joints/rod ends
• Multiple size stainless steel roll center spacers for precise adjustment
• Made in the USA

Sold as a pair.

Applications:

E8X 1 Series BMW M and non M

E9X 3 Series BMW M and non M

Wow those look nice! I guessed at price before clicking. I was 200 HIGH so I think you will sell a bunch. If I hadn't just done M3 parts I'd be seriously considering.

Very popular with the F8x guys and a couple of E9x m and none M. Definitely a good upgrade for aggressive street and track duty.

Has anyone actually used these? SPL makes good stuff, but I'm not buying blind.

You have one person above, Yost Autosport's 25 hour of Thunderhill E92 M3 and others. Search on other forums for reviews.

Just found a couple of photos one of our customers sent us. It's an E82 135i. MCS 2WR and Vorshlag are two other major suspension upgrades.
