Replace a worn 1990-1997 Honda Accord control arm, or the matching arm on the 1997-1999 Acura CL and 1992-1994 Acura Vigor, with the Delphi TC1233 Control Arm with Ball Joint. Built for the rear right upper position, it is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. The arm comes with its ball joint as one unit.

This Delphi control arm draws on the company's OE safety experience, which Delphi applies across its aftermarket steering line. Delphi tests to the extreme. Its parts are built to withstand temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C, and they go through 720 hours of salt spray. Delphi also uses dimensional and material analysis to match the aftermarket part closely to the original.

  • Crack and flaw checked: every control arm goes through 100% crack detection and ultrasonic flaw detection to confirm its materials match OE specifications.
  • Precision ball stud: the ball studs are machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
  • Robot welded: robotic welding is used for consistent performance and quality.
  • Corrosion protection: anti-corrosion protection is applied to each part to help prevent corrosion and improve its appearance.

A control arm links the wheel assembly to the chassis and lets it move with the suspension, and the ball joint serves as the pivot. Clunking over bumps, uneven tire wear or a loose, wandering feel may be signs that the arm or its ball joint needs replacing. This listing is the right-side unit. Replacing both sides together is recommended, and so is an alignment check after installation.
