Built from steel with a forged/cast construction and rubber bushings, it supports precise rear suspension geometry for vehicles such as the Acura TLX, Acura TL, Acura TSX, Honda Accord, and Honda Crosstour.

Key Features

• Steel construction with forged/cast design for suspension durability
• Black finish with black rubber bushings
• Adjustable design for alignment correction
• Bushings included; ball joint not included
• Pre-greased: No
• Grease fitting included: No
• Standard replacement grade for rear upper forward mounting locations

Detailed Description

Delphi TC7660 is engineered for the rear upper forward suspension position and is built to match OE-style dimensional and material requirements. Delphi applies extensive dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper fit and consistent performance, and the part is tested across extreme temperature and corrosion conditions, including exposure below -40 degrees C, above 120 degrees C, and 720 hours of salt spray. This makes it a practical replacement choice for Acura TLX, Acura TL, Acura TSX, Honda Accord, and Honda Crosstour rear suspension service.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Delphi TC7660 is a direct-fit style suspension control arm for rear upper forward service on the listed vehicles.

What It Helps Address

• Rear suspension looseness or instability
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn control arm bushings
• Alignment issues after suspension wear or component fatigue
• Noisy rear suspension movement from deteriorated rubber bushings
• Restoration of rear upper forward suspension geometry

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2015-2021 Acura TLX, rear upper forward. Fits 2009-2014 Acura TL, rear upper forward. Fits 2009-2014 Acura TSX, rear upper forward. Fits 2008-2017 Honda Accord, rear upper forward. Fits 2012-2015 Honda Crosstour, rear upper forward. Fits 2010-2011 Honda Accord Crosstour, rear upper forward.

Because this control arm is adjustable, a professional alignment is recommended after installation. Inspect related rear suspension bushings, fasteners, and mounting points before service, and verify the vehicle’s rear upper forward position matches the application before replacement.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused engineering practices and material analysis to support fit and performance consistency. The part is evaluated for temperature extremes and corrosion resistance to help meet demanding undercar conditions.
