    Rear outer lower control arm bushing

    From what i understand, the rear outer lower control arm bushing can be replaced with a ball joint which is the same as the upper rear outer.

    Can anyone confirm that part # 33306852895 can be used for the upper and the lower.

    Yes it can, and that is what i did when I replaced the rear bushings on my 328i. Just order 4 ball joints and you are good to go.

    They are also very easy to replace. Can be done on the car. Just have to take off the Brake Caliper Bracket / Assembly.
