Front Tension Strut Bushing, Powerflex - G05 X5, G06 X6, G07 X7

These are upgraded front tension strut bushings for G05 X5, G06 X6, G07 X7 models. This bushing fits the upper control arm, also known as the tension strut, thrust arm, or radius arm, and is the forward-most control arm on the X5/X6/X7 chassis - BMW part numbers 31106893549 and 31106893550.

The original bushing is filled with a vibration-absorbing fluid that does a great job of isolating bumps and rough roads, until the fluid leaks or evaporates. Worn X5/X6/X7 bushings will affect the ride, handling, and steering of the car and can also cause clunking noises and vibrations. These bushings from Meyle are all rubber with no fluid to leak out.

Powerflex Black Series urethane is a 95A durometer bushing material that is much better suited to the heavy G0x-series SAVs. There is no hydro fluid to fail or leak and the stiffness of the bushing resists deflection much better than any rubber bushing. Powerflex has extensive experience in automotive suspension and chassis systems and has combined these skills with advanced polyurethane manufacturing techniques. Durometer is standardized per fitment and location, so you can rest assured knowing the design engineers have selected the optimal urethane hardness for this specific part.

Not only will these provide a noticeable improvement in performance and durability, they also come with a lifetime warranty!
