Delphi applies OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to help match factory fit and function. This part number, TC1046, is built for drivers replacing worn suspension components on vehicles that need stable front-end control and consistent alignment geometry.

Key Features

• Forged control arm construction
• Rubber bushings included
• Bolt-in ball joint mounting type
• Ball joint not included
• Standard replacement, regular grade
• Non-adjustable design
• Front right lower position

Detailed Description

Delphi TC1046 is a front right lower suspension control arm engineered for OE-style replacement on 1994-1997 Honda Accord, 1995-1998 Honda Odyssey, and 1997-1999 Acura CL applications. The forged construction supports strength in a critical suspension location, while the rubber bushings help isolate road vibration and maintain controlled suspension movement. Delphi’s OE testing approach includes exposure to extreme temperatures and salt spray, along with dimensional and material analysis to support fitment consistency.

This part cross-references Dorman - OE Solutions 520-626 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive front-end looseness or wandering
• Clunking or knocking from the lower suspension area
• Uneven tire wear related to worn suspension geometry
• Steering pull caused by worn control arm bushings
• Restoration of front right lower suspension support

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the front right lower position before installation. The ball joint is not included, so inspect the existing joint and related hardware during service. After installation, perform a professional wheel alignment to verify suspension geometry on Honda Accord, Honda Odyssey, and Acura CL applications.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-based engineering and validation methods for its aftermarket steering and suspension parts. The TC1046 is built to meet standard replacement expectations with attention to material compatibility, dimensional accuracy, and durability testing under demanding temperature and corrosion conditions.
