Looking to swap out your stock control arms to upgrade to E46 non-M control arms? These Turner Motorsport bushings allow for easy installation of E46 front control arms onto your E36 without compromising safety or needing to alter anything!
Stock rubber front control arm bushings are designed to allow significant fore/aft movement of the front wheels to help absorb road impacts. This soft flexible design maximizes daily driving comfort and helps to add the “luxury” feeling to your BMW, but it is far from ideal for the performance or racing enthusiast that is looking for optimal handling and braking performance. Being a bonded rubber bushing that is constantly twisting and deflecting when in use, stock rubber bushings really take a beating and often fail prematurely, resulting in further degraded handling, braking shimmy or even clunking felt under your feet.
In the past, the only upgrade option to improve handling of your E30, E36, or Z3 was to replace the stock rubber with poly bushings, or delrin bushings that wear prematurely and are not serviceable or rebuild-able. Needless to say, these options don't allow for an E46 control arm fitment without major modifications. While well-designed poly bushings can vastly improve handling characteristics and offer good road feel with minimal increase to NVH, they are still a compromise when it comes to ultimate handling and braking performance.
Introducing the new Turner Front Control Arm Spherical Bearings! The Turner engineering team set out to design a no-compromise solution that requires no modification and offers instantaneous cornering and braking response. Our control arm bearings utilize a unique grease-able spherical bearing that is both serviceable and replaceable, with integrated dust seals to help keep dirt and moisture out. This bearing offers considerable improvement in both precision and durability compared to other unsealed poly and delrin bushing inserts previously available, which can wear prematurely due to contamination. The bearing assembly utilizes the highest quality materials, precision machining quality, and components to ensure a perfect fit and longest lasting component life possible.
The result is the ultimate in terms of low friction, no binding, and no unwanted deflection, as well as exceptional steering precision, turn-in response, and direct braking feedback with minimal increase in NVH. These spherical bearings are a must-have for any track car, but are also completely street-able and are a great upgrade for any enthusiast that enjoys spirited driving.
Bearing
Extremely robust, greaseable, double lip sealed spherical bearing (Rated for 20,000lbf Dynamic, 90,000lbf Static).

Please read before ordering. Eurosport Performance does not carry live inventory on this site. Most products are ordered for you directly from the manufacturer or our suppliers, and we follow their lead times. Placing an order confirms you have read and accepted the availability terms below.
| In stock
Ships within 24 to 48 hours
Products marked in stock are on our shelves in Montreal and leave within one to two business days.
|
Ordered for you
Most orders ship in 5 to 7 business days
Everything else is ordered from the manufacturer or supplier when you order. Delays can occur; if they do, we contact you.
|
|
Supplier lead times apply
If a product is not listed as in stock here and is on backorder at the manufacturer, it will most likely be on backorder for us too. We will tell you as soon as we know.
|
We keep you informed
You receive a confirmation when the order is placed, a notice if a delay comes up, and tracking the moment it ships.
|
Only products explicitly marked in stock are on our shelves. For everything else, the fastest way to know the current lead time is to ask us before you order; we check with the supplier and reply with a date.
Confirmed means we have placed the order with the manufacturer or supplier on your behalf. Shipping follows once the part reaches us or ships directly to you, usually within 5 to 7 business days for products that are available at the source.
We tell you as soon as the supplier confirms it, with the expected date when they give one. You can keep the order open, switch to an alternative we suggest, or cancel for a full refund before the part ships.
Yes. Any order that has not shipped can be cancelled by contacting us, and the refund goes back to your original payment method. Please contact us rather than opening a dispute with your bank: a cancellation takes us minutes, a chargeback takes weeks and freezes the refund in the meantime.
Sometimes. Larger or special-order items can ship to you directly from the supplier to save days in transit. You still receive tracking from us either way.
Orders ship from Montreal or directly from our suppliers. For Canadian addresses the price you pay is the price, with no import or duty fees added on delivery. See our shipping policy for details.
You get an email with the tracking number the moment the label is created, and you can follow the order in your account on the site or in the SPECD app.
Want a lead time before you order? Email us or use the contact page with the product name and your vehicle, and we will confirm availability with the supplier.
Products are warrantied by their manufacturer. Eurosport Performance is an authorized reseller: every part we sell is covered by the manufacturer's own warranty, with its own terms and duration. Claims go through us, so you deal with Eurosport Performance rather than a form on the brand's site, but whether a claim is accepted is the manufacturer's decision.
|
Manufacturer terms apply
Duration and coverage are set by the brand and differ from one to the next: some cover one year, some a lifetime, some only the original purchaser. The brand's warranty page is the reference; ask us if you cannot find it.
|
We file the claim for you
Contact us with your order number, photos and a description of the issue. We open the claim with the manufacturer, follow it up, and arrange the repair, replacement or credit they approve. The manufacturer decides whether the claim is accepted.
|
|
Fitment guarantee: North America only
We guarantee fitment for vehicles sold in the North American market. Vehicles from other markets are out of scope; specifications differ, and it is the customer's responsibility to confirm compatibility before ordering.
|
No warranty on tuning files
ECU and TCU tunes and other software files are sold without warranty and are not returnable once delivered or flashed. Tuning can affect your vehicle's factory warranty; please read the brand's terms before purchasing.
|
|
Proof of purchase
Your Eurosport Performance order is the proof of purchase every manufacturer asks for. Keep the order confirmation; it is also in your account on the site and in the SPECD app.
|
What is usually not covered
Damage from improper installation, modification, abuse, racing or an incorrect application for the vehicle, and normal wear items such as pads, clutch discs and filters. Shipping and labour are covered only when the manufacturer's terms say so.
|
It is the manufacturer's warranty for that product. Where the brand publishes it, we note it in the description; otherwise contact us before ordering and we will confirm the exact terms with them.
Stop using it if it is a safety-related part, then contact us with your order number, clear photos, and when and how the issue appeared. Do not return anything until we confirm the claim; manufacturers often require an inspection or an authorization number first.
The manufacturer. We prepare and submit the claim, provide the proof of purchase and push for a fair outcome, but acceptance, replacement or credit is their call under their terms. We pass their decision on to you as soon as we have it.
It depends on the manufacturer. Simple cases are approved in days; claims that need the part inspected can take a few weeks. We keep you updated at each step and push when it drags.
No. Tuning files are software; once delivered or flashed they cannot be returned, and they carry no warranty from Eurosport Performance or, in most cases, from the tuner. Support for the tune itself (revisions, flashing questions) comes from the tuning brand under its own terms.
No. Our fitment guarantee covers vehicles sold in the North American market only. European, Japanese and other market vehicles can differ in engines, electronics and dimensions, and a part listed for the North American model is not guaranteed to fit. If you order for one of these vehicles, confirming compatibility is your responsibility, and fitment issues on such vehicles are not covered by returns or warranty.
Labour is not covered unless the manufacturer's terms specifically include it. Having the part installed by a qualified shop protects your claim: improper installation is the most common reason a manufacturer declines.
No. Returns cover unused parts you no longer want, under our refund policy. Warranty covers a part that fails in use, under the manufacturer's terms. If you are unsure which applies, contact us and we will point you to the right one; please do not open a bank dispute, as it pauses both processes.
Questions about coverage before you buy? Email us with the product and your vehicle and we will confirm the manufacturer's terms.
