Skunk2 Clear Anodized Rear Lower Control Arms with Socket Tool for 2002-2008 Acura RSX & Honda Element (542-05-0205)

Fits 2002-2006 Acura RSX and 2003-2008 Honda Element (All Trims). This pair of Skunk2 Rear Lower Control Arms (LCAs) is engineered to replace restrictive OEM components, providing the strength and weight savings necessary for both track-focused performance and spirited street driving.

Forged from aircraft-quality 2024 billet aluminum and precision CNC-machined, these arms are more than 25% lighter than factory units. This reduction in unsprung weight allows the suspension to react faster to road imperfections and cornering loads. The I-beam shape and tapered design were developed through extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to eliminate stress risers and prevent the twisting or bending common in flatter, conventional designs.

Each arm is equipped with low-deflection polyurethane bushings that act as bearings, improving suspension response and providing a more connected road feel. Unlike factory rubber bushings that are prone to tearing when stressed, these poly bushings allow the arm to rotate freely about the zinc-plated steel inserts. Additionally, the arms feature adjustable anti-sway bar mounting holes, enabling fine-tuned suspension balance.
