  • Hello everyone!! In this video we will be replacing the lower control arms on my 5series bmw! I have been putting this project to the side for a long time, but I know why! These control arms put up a fight, but I was determined to get them done! I would also suggest getting an alignment after any suspension work! Please don't forget to subscribe and like! Enjoy!!!

    You should always replace the nuts, as they're self-retaining nuts which work by being slightly oval. By unscrewing and screwing them back on again you slightly change the ovality which reduces its self-retention abilities.

      Good morning, Yes, the new arms came with new self-locking nuts. I did use the new hardware.

    Protip: use a small airhammer. Makes easy work off those control arms

      It all depends on the quality of parts. The cheap set for the front and back can run you anywhere from $300-$450. I would not recommend this set just because you will be replacing it again in 6 months. A good decent set of control arms can set you back $1250-$1450. for the front and back.

      @@Fwerks.1592 you have any future performance plans for this car ? I have my e39 and I’ve loved every second of driving it except for the minor issues it gets time to time but never anything serious I’m at 196k miles

      @@lilsalad1546 as far as performance ehhh I kinda enjoy it stock for the time being. Maybe a tuner Motorsport flash from ecs tuning. Unfortunately this bad boy has been a headache as it’s broken again. Debating if I should do a video lol. Don’t get me wrong I love this E39 and the plan is to put half a million miles on it.
