Here's my contribution... got under the X this weekend briefly to identify the source of a clunk under certain driving conditions. The front "control arms" or "tension arm" or whatever they are called on the X and the e39 540i suspension setups bushing is worn on both sides, but worse on the driver's. It's the forward most arm that looks like it has a flat twist in it.
My question... and don't laugh. Do they make a version of this arm with a solid rubber bushing (or poly if no solid rubber)? Looking at even a new arm's bushing it has so much open space and seems like it would fail every 50 or 60k miles. Again, don't laugh too hard... lol still learning the platform.

I am looking for the ones seen in this video. Also, coming from the 3 series world... I'm used to replacing the control arms with ball joints as one piece. These appear to bolt into the arm... should replacement of these ball joints be done at the same time as replacing the bushings? Kind of nice to not have to buy whole arms to service the ball joints...

I saw that also but when I'm searching google I can't find any pictures of anyone with them installed I wanted to see how they look from different angles. Pics of the roof mounted lights would be nice too
