Skunk2's Hard Anodized Rear Lower Control Arms for the '01-'05 Civic are based off of the same technology the company's been using on its own race cars for more than a decade and are a must-have for enthusiasts looking to fine-tune their suspension for maximum handling performance. Skunk2's Rear Lower Control Arms are direct replacements, maintain OEM suspension geometry, and are ideal for street and race applications. Each arm is forged from aircraft-quality 2024 billet aluminum, precision CNC-machined, and is more than 25 percent lighter than the OEM arms. Skunk2 Rear Lower Control Arms also feature adjustable anti-sway bar mounting holes for advanced 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 other fixed rubber bushings by allowing the arm to rotate freely about the bushings. Properly 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. For maximum suspension performance, Skunk2 Rear Lower Control Arms are best complemented with Skunk2 Rear Camber Kits, Lower Arm Bars, and Strut Tower Bars.

Upgrade your Honda Civic's suspension with the Skunk2 Racing Hard Anodized Rear Lower Control Arms designed for 2001-2005 models. Crafted from aircraft-quality 2024 billet aluminum and finished with a durable hard anodized coating, these control arms provide superior strength, reduced weight, and enhanced durability. Each arm is CNC-machined for precise fitment and features adjustable anti-sway bar mounting holes, allowing for fine-tuning of your suspension setup to achieve optimal handling and balance. The low-deflection polyurethane bushings act as bearings for quicker response and a more positive steering feel, eliminating common issues like tearing and un-seating associated with rubber bushings. The I-beam and tapered design of these control arms are the result of extensive finite element analysis, ensuring resistance to twisting, bending, and internal stress concentrations that can lead to failure. This engineering focus results in a component that not only performs under demanding street and race conditions but also maintains an OEM suspension geometry for seamless integration. The package includes a socket tool for easy installation, making it a comprehensive upgrade for enthusiasts seeking improved handling, responsiveness, and durability. For maximal suspension performance, pair these control arms with Skunk2's rear camber kits, lower arm bars, and strut tower bars to customize your vehicle's stance and handling characteristics. Whether on the street or at the track, these control arms deliver a significant upgrade over stock components, combining strength, lightweight design, and precise engineering for a confident driving experience.
