TRQ Front Control Arm with Ball Joint Set Compatible with Acura TSX

In this review the TRQ Front Control Arm with Ball Joint Set is evaluated as a direct-fit replacement for 2009-2014 Acura TSX and 2008-2012 Honda Accord front suspension. The bottom line: this 6-piece kit is for owners who want a complete front arm and ball joint refresh without chasing individual parts. It installs as an OE replacement and includes both upper and lower arms with ball joints, so it eliminates multiple part numbers and delivers similar fit and alignment characteristics to original equipment.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed as an OE replacement to simplify installation and reduce the chance of fitment issues compared with universal parts.
• Complete Kit: Includes two front lower ball joints, two front lower control arms and two front upper control arms with ball joints so the entire front suspension assembly can be refreshed at once.
• Vehicle Specific: Fitment information is provided for compatibility with 2008-2012 Honda Accord fronts and 2009-2014 Acura TSX fronts to help buyers confirm fit before purchase.
• OE Reference Matching: Cross references to OE and aftermarket numbers are listed, making it easier to verify parts against factory replacements and service manuals.
• Value Proposition: Customers report the kit offers good value for money when replacing multiple worn suspension components together.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at DIY mechanics and independent shops replacing front suspension on compatible Honda Accord and Acura TSX models who want a single, matched parts set to restore steering and suspension geometry. It is especially useful when both upper and lower arms and ball joints are worn or when a coordinated replacement is preferred to maintain alignment.

It is not for vehicles outside the listed fitment; buyers with different model years or other makes should check compatibility closely or seek parts specifically listed for their vehicle. Those who need heavy-duty or performance upgraded control arms should look for purpose-built aftermarket options instead.
