trail arm bent... on honda 1995 civic?

Question

where can i go to find parts online to buy. Please let me know what a trail arm is. thanx

Answer 1

a bent trailing arm is usually due to an impact (either a collision from the rear or hitting a curb).
the big problem is not the trailing arm replacement but the resultant misalignment of the unibody due to the impact.

A trailing arm for that car costs about $450 plus labor to install it.
Most times you (or your mechanic) need to go to a Honda dealer to get a new trailing arm. Installing it is no problem..Straightening out the alignment is a different matter.
