sandbagger is on a distinguished road
I have just short of 100K miles on my Meyle HD tension bushings... and I live in Detroit, where the roads are worse than most of the 3rd world countries I have visited

But when I replace bushings on BMW I look for Meyle/Lemforder as they are OEM to BMW, maybe not that exact application, but they dont make junk

I dont believe TRW is OEM to BMW at all, so...

Likewise... Lemforder or TRW for ball joints?



I am specifically speaking of the tension strut. I will do the bushings and the ball joint at the same time.
