    FS: UUC Front Control Arm Bushings FCAB LCAB Like New! Look!!

    sold!

    I bought them a couple months ago and pressed them into brand new brackets. They were installed for about 5k miles. I have decided to go w/ poly bushings instead. These are covered by UUC's lifetime warranty! Fits E36 and E30 and Z3 and MZ3 including M3 (except 95 M3)
    $200 shipped obo

    sold!

    What bushings are you going with? I thought the UUC ones were polyurethane?

    Is the powerflex poly bushing harsh on the ride?
    Is the handling much better than the uuc rubber?
    will you consider lower the price?

    Do a search. Fitment of the arm to the bushing is critical. Rob has indicated that they're using teflon tape to ensure proper clearances between the arm and bushing. I'm not sure, but this could be the issue that the OP is experiencing.

    If I can't fix mine with the new control arms, they'll be going up for sale, too. :-/

    That probably would fix the issues with these. There was a little space between the control arm and the inside of the bushing where it goes on the control arm. That is most likley where the creaking sound came from.
    It's possible my two control arms were made to the small end of their spec and the the bearings to the larger side of their's even. Some teflon tape should take care of this.
