the bush at NO 3 the one connected to the axle suport..Bavaria Auto parts said it come with the whole wishbone assembly.and the worst is they dont have the spare part.I just replace a new set of absorber and there alot of noise (kluk klank) everytime bump into uneven road.

In my 14 years of owning e36, I have never replace the bushing (mark #3). Most of the time, I only have to replace bushing (mark 5 or mark 19).

Did you have an accident before? Better check the alignment as well.

The left and right lower arms can be changed. In fact, it's a very common practice in the US and UK for people to change their lower arms + bushes at intervals of 50K miles or so. Bushes at location 5 and 19 are the most common ones that we tend change here. I'm not sure of the prices in KL but my friend recently got a quote for RM 900.00 for a pair of TRW lower arms + all relevant bushes + linstallation labour in JB for his E36 325i

i do change all 3 bush/balljoint plus swing bar(stabilizer link) for left and right side a year ago. it cost me around 500 include installation fee. My advice, try to change tie rod end first because for mine, it produce (kluk klank) sound last time. I change bush/ball joint also because rubber there already koyak.....
