Did you notice any ride improvements with the new control arms? I have a lot of side to side swaying, and also some bounce-back (rearward) when stopping abruptly.
yea, all the videos i watched before doing the job looked a little different from what I had too. Either BMW changed the design or that person already removed the entire forward half. I didn't want to go thru the hassle of removing everything just to get the socket in place.

i definitely noticed improvements. the ball joints was shredded so every time I went over any rough roads or bumps, I get a loud metallic clunking/popping sound. noise is gone and it feels alot more stable now.
