Lower Rear Control Arm
What is a good lower rear control arm for the 1999 Honda Civic Hatchback?
Price and Brand both make a big difference I know but I wanted to get something within my budget ($150.00?)
Thanks!

yea go for OEM.. I don't get people buying aftermarket LCAs.. It's just bling i guess.. the OEM LCAs are as same as the CTR one so they will be more than enuf to handle whatever you are planning to do..
i agree, keep the oem lca and save ur self some cash. i have omni cuz i crashed my eg and **** got bent or something. so if ur current lca are fine then keep them.

Other then the added 'bling,' and they are a little lighter then stock, they do offer the hole for a swaybar.
Omni's are probably the best for the price:

$100 at kteller.
There is a sponser on here that has them for $95 shipped.

if it's a track-only car, the 2.5lbs unsprung weight is worthwhile. around town however, I would just go with OEM. my CX didn't have the holes for a rear swaybar so I bought OEM teg LCA's on ebay for like $40 and installed new bushings. that brings up another point, replacement bushings are generally unavailable for aftermarket LCA's.

Not while there is still another 300+lbs of unsprung weight on the car.
I can think of a lot better ways to spend $150 on a track car. Saving 2.5lbs on control arms for a production sedan isn't a priority.

ya I feel you on money being better spent elsewhere. I didn't exactly mean they are worth the price or anything, I was just mentioning their only redeeming quality. I guess I should have worded that better. like I said, I have stock teg LCA's on my eg cx hatch, I definitely think it's the way to go if you need to mess with them at all.
