You don't design a control arm pivoting on a horizontal shaft with a vertical mounted bushing. It makes no sense. You design it the way its been done for a hundred years. It's a golden cash COW for Honda. They charge anything they want on the labor, I heard $350 to $935, we the public are paying for all of it. I have been selling auto and truck wholesale parts close to 55 years, so I am familiar with what I'm talking about. Thanks for letting me vent.
