For the 2002-2003 BMW X5 4.6is, Whiteline makes the Front Lower Radius Arm Bushing. The kit contains 2 shell bushings and 2 tubes. The chassis code on the listing is E53. Trim named on the listing: 4.6is. It goes on the front of the vehicle. Order it as part number W82977.
Every time the wheel moves, the radius arm swings on its bushings. When they are soft or worn, the arm shifts under load, the alignment changes as the car moves, and steering and braking feel less precise. A stiffer bushing cuts that unwanted movement while still letting the arm pivot freely. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 2 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Other Whiteline parts we list for the BMW X5: 16mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts.
