Review on MOOG RK640290 Control Arm: Superior Performance & Durability for Enhanced Suspension by Gerson Lagerquist

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fit 2004 Honda Accord

Can't rate durability but it fits the 2004 Honda Accord like a glove. The Honda dealership charged $550 to replace the matching bushing. The tire itself is under $20, but you'll need a special tool ($140) or a hydraulic press. Replacing the entire arm is a cheaper at-home repair option. The feeling of "falling apart" when turning onto the road disappeared. Hopefully the inner edge of the tire will disappear. Tips: First remove the entire damper fork (torque 32f-tlb (14mm), 47ft-lb (17mm)), then remove the stabilizer link, and then disconnect the ball joint from the arm (torque 58-65). ft-lb), remove the mating 19mm socket bolt (torque 61 ft-lb), then remove the final 17mm bolt (torque 47 ft-lb). Assemble the lever in the reverse order of removal. Same torque specifications for front right control arm.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • I don't have much grudge against it, it's ok
