Keep the rear suspension geometry in check with the Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm (CMS60165), a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 2004-2008 Acura TL, 2004-2008 Acura TSX, and 2003-2007 Honda Accord (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment). This is the rear lower forward lateral arm — it helps locate the rear wheel and control lateral movement so alignment and tracking stay where the factory set them.
As a lateral arm's bushings age and the arm wears, you may notice clunking or knocking from the rear, uneven or accelerated tire wear, or a rear end that won't hold an alignment. If a worn lateral arm is the cause of those signs, this Mevotech Supreme unit replaces it. Replacing the matching arm on the opposite side at the same time helps keep the rear suspension balanced.
What is this part and where does it go?
It's the Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm (CMS60165), cataloged for the rear lower forward position. It helps locate the rear wheel and control lateral movement to maintain alignment and tracking.
Which vehicles does it fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2008 Acura TL, 2004-2008 Acura TSX, and 2003-2007 Honda Accord. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact fit for your vehicle.
What are the signs a lateral arm may need replacing?
Clunking or knocking from the rear, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and difficulty holding a rear alignment. Diagnose the cause first, since these signs can have other sources.
Does it help protect against rust?
Yes. The arm has a protective surface treatment that helps resist corrosion and rust build-up.
Should I replace both sides at once?
It's a good idea. Replacing the matching arm on the opposite side at the same time helps keep the rear suspension balanced and wearing evenly.
