Product Description

After decades on the road (and track), your EF Civic or CRX’s suspension isn’t what it used to be—and that’s where Skunk2 Racing’s Front Lower Control Arms step in. These arms are engineered as a direct OEM replacement but with a serious performance twist. Whether you opt for the durable Hard Rubber Bushings or the race-spec Spherical Bearings, you’re getting a suspension upgrade that delivers tighter handling, smoother weight transfer, and more consistent traction.

The Hard Rubber Bushing version features 15% stiffer bushings than stock, restoring crisp response while keeping your ride streetable. They're ideal for daily drivers who still demand performance in corners and under acceleration, plus installation is a breeze—no bushing press needed, no downtime, no hassle.

For the track day warriors, the Spherical Bearing version takes it up a notch. These use TIG-welded bearing cups, high-load steel bearings, and precision press-fit sleeves, giving you ultra-accurate geometry under extreme driving conditions. Each bearing is serviceable via removable Spirolox rings, ensuring your investment lasts through hard laps and hard launches.

Both styles are coated in zinc plating to fight rust and corrosion, and both restore the geometry and response your chassis deserves. Whether you're fixing a worn-out suspension or dialing in a competitive setup, these control arms are a bolt-on, do-it-right-the-first-time solution.
