FDF Raceshop - BMW E8X/E9X Front Adjustable Lower Control Arm

If you've tried to get serious angle out of the E82 or E90 chassis, you know the stock arms are the first thing to get in the way. We built these to solve that clearance issue once and for all.

The design is straightforward but effective: we adapted an outer tie rod into a threaded sleeve with a heim joint. This turns the control arm into a fully adjustable unit that's way more versatile than the factory piece.

Why we built them:

• Insane Clearance: We tested these on our E82 drift car and lengthened them 40mm over stock. When you pair these with an eccentric bushing on the tension arm, you stop hitting the chassis and start getting usable angle.
• 50° of Angle: These arms let us hit 50 degrees of steering angle while keeping the dual ball joint design. Honestly, it's so much throw that you probably won't even want any more than what these provide.
• Proven: These were beaten on in freezing conditions and high-load drifting to make sure the sleeves and joints hold up.

The Specs:

• Range: Up to 40mm longer than OEM.
• Build: Tie-rod to heim joint conversion via an adjustable sleeve.
• Fitment: BMW E8X and E9X chassis.

The bottom line: If you're running an angle kit and you're tired of rubbing or hitting your arms at full lock, this is the fix.
