Control Arm Bushing Replacement Video

Here is another set of videos from BMP Design.

Again, this is for the E46, but most of the parts are the same for the Z4.

These videos do still seem to exist - not sure why the links don't work, but I fished these from the source of the posts...

mine didn't come off that easy, I had to use an air Chisel, took about 30 minutes each side just to get the damn thing off the control arm, a puller would have been nice :)
