Replace a worn front corner link with the Beck/Arnley control arm and ball joint assembly (P/N 102-4655, also written 1024655), a front left upper unit that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2001 Acura RL. This control arm locates the front wheel while its integrated ball joint lets the steering and suspension move through their normal travel — a solid pick if you're searching for a 1996-2001 Acura RL control arm.
Signs the original front left upper arm or ball joint may need attention include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven front tire wear — diagnose the cause before replacing.
