Skunk2 Honda Civic DX/LX/EX (96–00) - Front Lower Control Arm - Spherical Bearing

Skunk2 Racing’s Spherical Bearing Front Lower Control Arms for the '96-'00 Honda Civic DX/LX/EX (Si Model – Compliance Arm is Required P/N 542-05-M570) maintains suspension geometry accuracy by eliminating ALL unwanted movement at the suspension pick-up points. The spherical bearing design allow the control arm and the shocks to pivot freely about single points without any of the slop or binding inherent with ALL elastomer style compensator bushing designs, resulting in razor sharp handling with precise feedback.

Skunk2 Lower Control Arms are machined from new high strength forged alloy steels cores. Precision CNC machined bearing cups are then pressed into the arms and TIG welded in place before a final corrosion resistant zinc plating is applied. The spherical bearings are pressed into the bearing cups and secured with clip locks allowing for easy serviceability. Each bearing includes a set of high misalignment bushings that allow for bind free movement throughout the widest possible range.

Along with Skunk2 Racing Spherical Lower Control Arms, we highly recommend the use of Skunk2’s Racings Spherical Bearing Front Compliance Bushings (Sold Separately) to achieve the absolute ultimate in handling response and precision.

Features:

New High Strength Forged Alloy Steel Cores

Corrosion Resistant Zinc Plating

High Load Steel Spherical Bearings

TIG Welded Precision Bearing Cups

Steel Misalignment Bushings

Though we recommend this suspension for dedicated track cars, it is fine to use spherical bearing suspensions on street cars as long as it understood they have inherently higher NVH characteristics, and the suspension pick up points should be regularly inspected.
