Dorman - OE Solutions Alignment Camber Lateral Link P/N:521-131
Replace a worn rear upper link on your 2006-2015 Honda Civic, 2013-2022 Acura ILX or 2006-2011 Acura CSX with the Dorman - OE Solutions Alignment Camber Lateral Link 521-872, a rear upper Honda Civic control arm that helps locate the wheel and hold its camber angle within the alignment range. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for trim and engine details.
This part is listed under both names: alignment camber lateral link and control arm. It serves as a suspension control arm in the rear upper position, tying the wheel assembly to the chassis so the tire keeps its intended inward or outward tilt as the suspension moves.
Signs this part may need replacing: clunking or knocking from the rear suspension over bumps, uneven tire wear, or rear camber that will not stay within specification. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the suspension before replacing parts.
Installation note: A wheel alignment check is recommended after installing any camber link. Consult the vehicle service information for torque values and whether the original fasteners may be reused.
