Rear Upper Control Arm for Honda CR-V 2002-2006 and Element - Durable

In this review the Rear Upper Control Arm kit is examined for owners of Honda CR-V (2002-2006) and Honda Element (2003-2011). The bottom line: this two-piece replacement kit delivers direct-fit, pre-greased control arms that restore rear suspension geometry affordably. The reviewer found the kit best for drivers whose aging factory arms show wear or noise and who want a straightforward, tested replacement; the single biggest reason to buy is the combination of direct replacement fit and pre-installed bushings that reduce road noise right out of the box.

Key Features

• Vehicle Compatibility: Fits Honda CR-V 2002-2006 and Honda Element 2003-2011 for straightforward fitment without modification.
• Complete Kit: Includes two rear upper control arms (left and right) so both sides can be serviced at once for balanced handling.
• Pre-greased Assemblies: All control arm assemblies arrive pre-greased which simplifies installation and reduces initial wear.
• Durable Construction: Made of premium quality material and tested for impact, wear and fatigue to provide longer service life and resistance to deformation.
• Noise and Vibration Reduction: Pre-installed bushings help reduce road noise, vibration and harshness to improve ride comfort after replacement.
• Warranty and QA: Backed by a 12-month warranty and tested before shipping to ensure quality and reliability.

Who It's For

This control arm kit is aimed at DIY mechanics and independent shops working on late 1990s to early 2010s Honda compact SUVs who need a reliable, direct-fit rear upper control arm replacement. It is especially useful when both sides show wear and a paired replacement helps restore even handling and steering response.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners seeking OE-branded parts or a different suspension geometry than the original; also buyers requiring adjustable performance arms or motorsport-grade materials should consider specialized aftermarket options instead.
