Front Left Tension Strut, Meyle HD - G42 230i, G20 330i, G22 430i

The Meyle HD front left thrust arm for the G42 230i, G20 330i, and G22 430i uses a stiffer rubber bushing to provide more precision and responsiveness. BMW did something similar with the M Sport suspension but normal "base" models got a more compliant (softer) bushing. If you feel that your stock steering is a bit too soft these are a perfect upgrade. This is the complete thrust arm, also known as a pull rod, tension strut, or upper control arm.

Worn original rubber bushings cause steering vibration, imprecise steering feel, and sloppy handling. The bushings are replaceable on their own but a complete arm is the better option as it also includes the outer ball joint. The arm also comes fully assembled which greatly simplifies installation.

This thrust arm is a Heavy-Duty design from Meyle. Meyle HD parts are designed and engineered in Germany using an OE+ approach. Meyle engineers use the original design but with several improvements in materials and design to make a control arm that lasts longer and performs better than the stock link. Meyle HD parts are true upgrades that surpass OEM parts but without compromises to noise or ride quality. Meyle HD parts are TUV approved and have a four year warranty.
