Keep the rear wheels tracking true with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly (CMS60137) — a direct-fit Acura TL control arm for the rear right upper position on the 1996-1998 Acura TL. This Mevotech Supreme suspension control arm is engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades, and it ships with the ball joint already installed so you replace both worn parts in one step.
The control arm locates the rear wheel and connects it to the chassis, while the integrated ball joint lets the suspension articulate as the wheel moves. A worn control arm or ball joint can show up as clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven rear tire wear; if a failed arm or joint is the cause, this assembly replaces it.
