Each arm is forged from aircraft-quality 2024 billet aluminum, precision CNC-machined, and are 25% lighter than the OEM arms. Skunk2 Rear Lower Control Arms also feature multiple sway-bar end-link mounting holes for additional suspension tuning and optimum balance. The low-deflection, polyurethane bushings act as bearings for quicker response and a more positive feel. Skunk2 also eliminated tearing and un-seating problems typically associated with fixed rubber bushings by allowing the arm to rotate freely about the bushings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProperly designed suspension components must be strong and functional first and aesthetically pleasing second. Skunk2's Rear Lower Control Arms are both! Each arm's I-beam shape and tapered design is a direct result of efforts to eliminate twisting, bending, and stress risers. Extensive FEA (finite element analysis) testing determined that conventional “straight and flat” designs are plagued by internal stress risers. A poorly designed arm will concentrate stress in particular zones, causing the arm to fracture and ultimately fail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor maximum suspension performance, Skunk2 Rear Lower Control Arms are best complemented with Skunk2 Rear Camber Kits, Lower Arm Bars, and Strut Tower Bars. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecialty Socket and Hardware Included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFitment:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e01-05 Honda Civic DX 1.7 D17A1\u003cbr\u003e 01-05 Honda Civic EX 1.7 D17A2\u003cbr\u003e 01-05 Honda Civic HX 1.7 D17A6\u003cbr\u003e 01-05 Honda Civic LX 1.7 D17A1\u003cbr\u003e 02-05 Honda Civic Si 2.0 K20A3\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Skunk2 Racing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45271850647832,"sku":"SKK542-05-0225","price":227.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0259\/7856\/8790\/products\/542-05-0225_1.jpg?v=1746223871","url":"https:\/\/nipponpower.com\/products\/skunk2-pro-series-rear-lower-control-arm-raw-2001-2005-honda-civic-542-05-0225","provider":"Nippon Power","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
