About this product

The part is built to the following specification: Fitting Position: U, Fitting Position: Left, Fitting Position: Front Axle, Material: Rubber, Control/Trailing Arm Type: Steel. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. Compatible with ALPINA, BMW vehicles; use the vehicle selector above to confirm exact fitment for your make, model, and engine variant. Fitment data is sourced from TecDoc, the authoritative European parts catalogue. This part supersedes original equipment references: 0390378, 042128B, 05TC4367F, 06792 and 30 more.
