BMW 31316874370 Front Spring Suspension Strut Wheel Bearing

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 31316874370 fits your vehicle.

The steering and suspension check includes inspecting tires for irregular wear patterns and proper inflation, checking the universal joint and steering gear housing for leakage, examining tie-rod ends and all suspension and steering components for damage or wear, testing the movement of the steering components while an assistant turns the steering wheel, checking balljoints for play and inspecting their boots for damage, and inspecting the suspension arm bushings at the rear of the vehicle for deterioration.

If your vehicle has a strut tower brace, remove the cowl trim panel cap and associated bolts. Regardless of the model, from within the engine compartment, remove the strut upper mounting nuts and lower the strut assembly. Be sure to take note of any alignment marks between the mounting plate and vehicle body.

To start removing the shock absorber, block the front wheels and raise the rear of the vehicle using jackstands. Removing the rear wheel can provide better access. On E-series chassis models, remove the luggage compartment side trim panel. Position a floor jack underneath the hub carrier and raise it to support the weight of the carrier.
