1. Vehicle Compatibility
The KU-FV-06-004 is an independent aftermarket front-right upper control arm assembly designed for use with selected BMW X5 and X6 models.
Compatible platforms include the X5 E70 and F15 and the X6 E71 and E72. OE number 31126776418 is provided only as a fitment and cross-reference identifier. Buyers should confirm the OE number, VIN, production date and installation position before ordering.
2. Complete Replacement Assembly
• Pre-Installed Ball Joint: Connects the control arm to the steering knuckle and allows controlled steering and suspension movement.
• Pre-Installed Rubber Bushing: Helps isolate vibration transferred between the suspension and vehicle body.
• Complete Assembly Configuration: Reduces the need to purchase or press-fit the ball joint and bushing separately.
• Front-Right Design: The arm profile and mounting points are configured specifically for the front-right upper position.
3. Suspension Function and Construction
• Forged Aluminum Construction: Provides structural strength while helping limit unnecessary suspension weight.
• Wheel-Position Control: Helps guide the steering knuckle through the intended range of suspension movement.
• Suspension-Load Transfer: Transfers braking, cornering and road-impact forces through the corresponding chassis mounting points.
• Surface-Treated Metal: Provides additional resistance to moisture and normal road contamination.
4. Installation and Service Requirements
• Fitment Verification: Compare the existing component and OE reference before installation.
• Suspension Inspection: Inspect the paired control arm, tie rod, stabilizer link, wheel bearing and related suspension components during replacement.
• Correct Fastener Tightening: Tighten all mounting hardware according to the vehicle manufacturer’s specified procedures and torque values.
• Wheel Alignment: Inspect and adjust the wheel alignment after installation to restore the required suspension geometry.
• Professional Installation: Replacement should be completed by technicians familiar with SUV steering and suspension systems.
