I BROKE OUR BMW BEFORE MOVING! BMW E90 Rear Knuckle Replacement.

repair

Hello, in todays episode we are replacing the rear knuckle on my fiance's BMW E90. I stripped out one of the control arms when re-installing the wheel bearing. So I just have to eat the cost and fix it. Problem was, it happened only days before our move making thing pretty difficult. I had to get it towed up to the new house, but hey, at least I am not working in that little dungeon anymore!


This is NOT a "How To" video, more so just a quick video on how I replaced it and fixed the issue. Check out my other video for DIY info :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldnTlrnNzv0&t=53s


I ordered a used knuckle off Ebay for only $90 and replaced the wheel bearing with a new one for under $30. So this mistake cost me about $120, it could have been a lot worse!
