Hi all,

Anyone know where to order upgraded bushings?

Most likely part # 33326771828 is the bushing, 33326863853 is the bolt, 33326760668 is the nut, 33326760363 is the washer.

M3?
The early M3s had a rubber isolated lower BJ, later M3s run a solid UPR and LWR BJ p/n 33326775551.

Possibly, non-‘M’s can run the same.

328 Bearing p/n 33326771828
1995M3 Bearing p/n 33326771828

So, as far as I know E36 318/323/325/328 can run same Lower Control Arm Outer Bearing as late M3.

^ Correct, i used m3 ball joints on my non M 325is. Much better than the rubber bushings.

They confirmed my VIN number / order, so nothing to worry, thanks for the info tho.

Ya don’t know about that, but those don’t look like E36 components.

The description says fits "E36E46X3 (E83)X3LCI (E83LCI)Z4 E85Z4 E86Z4 E89" which sounds right, those should all have a similar LCA design. If you look at adjustable aftermarket camber arms they typically show fitting all of those models with the same lower control arm. I would still use the M3 ball joint, all of the articulation and no squish. I have installed a couple on my non M and they work great. Also the OE ball joints are pretty cheap.

Mileage that this happened?

[magnetron]

Ordered the original ones, as multiple people with trace experience told me to NOT change to poly bushes. For now, priority; Fix the issue and drive on the track again!

[magnetron]

Finally today I have fixed the issues of the bushings.

…and got an alignment?
