Sharper Turn-In Without Sacrificing Alignment Stability
Factory rubber bushings in the front lower control arms let a 7th generation Accord's caster angle wander under load, which softens turn-in feel over time. Whiteline's KTA371 is a complete front lower control arm assembly with increased static caster and low compliance bushings built in, so the caster angle stays locked in through hard cornering instead of winding back under load.
Key Features
- Complete control arm assembly, not just a bushing kit, for a clean bolt-in replacement
- Increased static caster sharpens initial turn-in response
- Low compliance bushings reduce caster wind-back compared to soft factory rubber
- Maintains tighter alignment tolerances between static and dynamic settings
- Sold as a pair covering both front lower control arms

About Whiteline
Whiteline designs suspension components in Australia with a focus on alignment correction and bushing compliance. Its control arm assemblies are built to hold alignment settings through repeated hard driving rather than degrading like factory rubber over time.
FAQ
What is the WHLKTA371?The WHLKTA371 is a Whiteline complete front lower control arm assembly for the 2003-2007 Honda Accord. It replaces both front lower control arms with units that include increased static caster and low compliance bushings.
Does this kit include the control arms or just bushings?This kit includes complete control arm assemblies with the bushings already installed, not a standalone bushing kit for the factory arm.
Will this require a wheel alignment after installation?Yes. Any front lower control arm replacement changes alignment geometry, so a full alignment is required after install.
What does increased static caster do for handling?Increased caster sharpens initial turn-in response and helps the front tires maintain more consistent contact with the road through a corner.
Does this fit the Acura TSX as well?This listing is fitted specifically for the 2003-2007 Honda Accord. Confirm chassis code compatibility separately before ordering for a related Honda or Acura platform.
Are the bushings replaceable later, or is the whole arm replaced?The bushings are integrated into the complete arm assembly, so replacement means installing the full arm rather than pressing in a new bushing.
Is this a daily driver friendly upgrade or a track-only part?The low compliance bushings are firmer than stock rubber but are commonly run on daily driven cars that also see track or autocross use.
How many control arms come in this kit?This kit includes 2 arms, covering both the driver and passenger side front lower control arms.

Control Arms
Control arms are the key suspension linkages that connect the wheel hub and knuckle assembly to the vehicle frame, controlling wheel travel through both compression and droop cycles. Worn OEM control arms with loose ball joints or deteriorated bushings cause vague steering, tire wear, and handling inconsistency that only go away with replacement or upgrade.Popular UpgradesTubular steel upper control arms for lifted trucks and SUVs are the most popular upgrade in the control arm category, correcting the geometry compromised by a suspension lift and restoring proper caster angle and ball joint centering. Adjustable upper control arms allow alignment angles like caster and camber to be dialed in precisely after a lift or lowering modification. Replacement lower control arms with polyurethane or solid aluminum bushings improve response and longevity compared to worn OEM rubber mounts.Why do I need new control arms after a lift kit?A suspension lift changes the angle at which the OEM upp...

Suspension
Aftermarket suspension systems improve handling, ride quality, and ride height adjustment beyond what the factory suspension provides. From lowering springs and coilover kits for sport handling to lift kits and leveling kits for truck and SUV off-road capability, quality suspension components transform how a vehicle rides and handles. Popular Suspension Upgrades Popular suspension upgrades include coilover kits for adjustable ride height and damping, sport lowering springs for improved handling and reduced body roll, performance shock absorbers and strut assemblies, sway bar and end link upgrade kits, subframe brace kits, and complete suspension packages for lifted trucks and off-road SUVs. Alignment kits including camber bolts and camber arms are also frequently ordered after ride height changes. What is the difference between coilovers and lowering springs? Coilovers are complete shock and spring assemblies with adjustable ride height set by threading the spring perch on the shock...
