Pictured here is my OLD (White) Thrust Piece with NEW replacement piece along with BMW FB-1 Lube.

Simple job if you have the 3-Prong Removal Tool (I ordered off EBAY).

My steering rack clunk in now gone - I just need to fine tune the steering feel by loosening the cap 1/4 turn.

I lived with this clunk steering after the dealership had the car for 3 days
replacing Strut Hats and little else -- this way for 45k miles.

So 4 years later - I run across a forum posting about this Thrust Piece.

The noise is gone and the steering feel / solidity is like a new car to me.

I would say this is in my Top 3 mods -- Highly Recommended

There's a clunk in my front suspension and I can't quite figure it out. I don't think it's the top hats because the BMW units are pretty robust.

I can't isolate it to either side but it seems more pronounced when both front wheels roll over the same seam/line.

Do you have a link to that tool that you used?
