Front Stabilizer Link CTR CL0193 (CLHO-62) – Honda Civic VIII (2006–2011)

High-quality front stabilizer link from the renowned Korean manufacturer CTR. This product is a direct replacement for the original Honda part, offering durability and steering precision identical to factory components.

The stabilizer link is mounted on the front axle and connects the sway bar to the shock absorber strut. In the Honda Civic VIII (commonly known as "UFO"), the right side is identical to the left side, meaning this product fits both sides of the vehicle.

When to Replace / Symptoms of Wear

Stabilizer links are among the most frequently worn suspension components. The most common signs of failure include:

• Characteristic knocking or clunking sounds from the wheel area when driving over bumps or speed ramps.
• Noticeable play in the ball joints during a suspension inspection.
• Reduced vehicle stability in corners and a "loose" steering feel.

Installation and Service Tips

• Replace in Pairs: We recommend replacing the stabilizer links on both sides of the axle at the same time. If one is worn, the other is usually in a similar condition.
• Proper Tightening: Always use new self-locking nuts (included in the set). Use a hex key or wrench to hold the stud in place while tightening to prevent it from spinning inside the housing and damaging the rubber seal.
• Wheel Alignment: There is no need to perform a wheel alignment after replacing only the stabilizer links.
