Delphi Knowledge Article: BMW Front Upper Control Arms

For clarification purposes, the control arms listed below, both right and left side front upper control arms are not adjustable but rather have a camber design of either +.5 degree or -.5 degree depending on the part number. Check camber values and if necessary, replace upper control arm with over or under-dimension variant.

+30’ (+.5º), -30’ (-.5º)

Please review carefully to assist in selecting the correct Delphi part number.

Delphi's OE safety technology is fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide and we apply Delphi's OE expertise to our aftermarket steering portfolio. Delphi tests to the extreme for OE performance at every turn: our parts withstand temperatures below -40 degrees C and over 120 degrees C and are exposed to 720 hours of salt spray. Delphi's extensive dimensional and material analysis ensures the very best compatibility between the OE and aftermarket part.
