Detailed Description

Delphi TC1233 is engineered as a rear right upper suspension control arm and ball joint assembly for Acura CL and Honda Accord models listed in the fitment data. Delphi applies OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper part-to-vehicle compatibility, and the assembly is tested for temperature extremes and salt-spray exposure to support durability in demanding road conditions. This part cross-references Honda 52390-SM1-033 for the same application.

Common Repair Applications

  • Rear suspension noise from worn bushings or ball joint wear
  • Uneven rear tire wear caused by loose suspension geometry
  • Clunking or shifting from a deteriorated upper control arm assembly
  • Restoring rear right upper suspension alignment on Acura CL and Honda Accord vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Install TC1233 only on the listed rear right upper positions for the confirmed Acura CL and Honda Accord model years. Because the ball joint is press-in and the arm is not adjustable, proper removal and installation tools are required, and final alignment should be checked after service. Verify the threaded stud and mounting dimensions against the original part before installation.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-oriented testing and material analysis for its steering and suspension aftermarket parts. TC1233 is built to meet standard replacement expectations for the listed Acura CL and Honda Accord applications.
