Product SpotLight: Skunk2 Honda Element Rear Lower Control Arms



Ideal for street and race applications, Skunk2 Rear Lower Control Arms for the Honda Element replace your stock arms while retaining factory suspension geometry. Skunk2 Rear Lower Control Arms are designed in 3D CAD, using Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and are engineered to be stronger and 25% lighter than the stock piece. The LCAs are forged aircraft quality AL2024 billet aluminum and are CNC machined. Skunk2's LCAs feature steel mounting plates to equally distribute the clamp loads for a more durable and secure connection and feature low deflection polyurethane bushings many competitor's LCAs are tightened directly to the aluminum and have a tendency to over stress the material and loosen over time. All Skunk2 Lower Control Arms for the Element include new Skunk2 bolts and sockets required for installation. Skunk2 Lower Control Arms are available in JDM Gold, Clear and Hard Anodized Finishes. MSRP: $238.07.
