My rear toe bolts are frozen. Rather than pay Firestone $150 to supposedly heat up and unfreeze both or do it myself, I was thinking of replacing the arms. I have 204k miles and I just replaced my whole front end besides shocks. My question is which arm is the toe arm? Also I found this online.

Would that work for both my toe and camber? I have -2.3 on each wheel since I have 20 inch rims. Also if that's the right parts which one is the camber arm on the car? Also I though the camber was the too small arm with the ball joint? 2006 Acura TL 6 Speed manual

 

Replace them with aftermarket adjustable camber/toe links (4 pieces total).
You'll still need to get the frozen bolts out.

 

I would replace the toe arm with a factory (genuine acura) part. The Acura toe arm has a bearing instead of a bushing.

Make sure you buy new bolts and eccentric cams and a nut for each side. also from a dealer.

use bernardiparts.com
or similar.

If the car is stock, that should be all you need.

 

Ok the aftermarket way is the link I included in the first post the one that would work?
As for the OEM I'll look at that site for the price, but yes I would replace bolts and nuts oem. I was looking to resolve the camber if I am working around it. I thought the camber adjust would be the bolt joint on top. Am I wrong? If so the link included is the wrong camber arm

 

SPC upper camber arm, if want camber adjustability. One arm per side, and yes it's the shorter arm, up top in rear, with ball joint.
I agree with replacement of factory toe arm and bolt/nut.

 

Ok thanks. I agree with the stock toe. All new parts bolts nuts and all is $99.20 per side before shipping. That's acuraoemparts.com Does that sound reasonable?

 

Sounds about right, haven't priced them. You can try other Acura Dealer vendors on here (under vendor section). Mention your a member of Acurazine.

Frozen eccentric bolts are not uncommon. One way or another, the arms will have to be replaced because the eccentric bolt is frozen in the bushing/bearing. A cutoff wheel (6" or 7") and about 15 minutes will take care of the bolts allowing you to remove the old arms. I'd also recommend sticking with the OEM arms for replacement. I'd also recommend coating the new eccentric bolt with lithium grease or some other suitable anti-seize agent when installing.

And the SPC upper arms work great for camber issues!! Easy install for both the OEM arms and the SPC arms.

 

Thank you very much!

 

For the OEM toe arm, what is the correct way to install? Does the bushing side go to the subframe?

 

They are 2 different size bolts, well one side is a bolt. I imagine the holes will be 2 different sizes. I just ordered mine yesterday, so when I get it I'll let you know.
