People are usually quick to suggest Moog as a decent factory replacement, but it's been my experience on three different project cars that their quality has gone into the toilet. Lemforder, on the other hand, is on the same level as Deeza. It's a German brand who supplies most of the suspension components to European OEMs. I haven't purchased anything from them myself, but I have owned Deeza parts which are otherworldly compared to parts store specials. Any comparison to Deeza means a lot to me. Unfortunately, Deeza doesn't seem to be offering parts for Hondas through the major retailers lately.
Just my worthless opinion.

Yea I have to agree with Jarrett I have run Moog on my upper arms and they have been garbage! I have replaced them 3 times in 2 years.
I'd look through local junkers and see if you can get your hands on OEM. I have even seen part cars go up on Craigslist where the guy sold the set for $45!

Ball joints rattle like crazy. Yeah this will be the 3rd time. As soon I got it I instantly saw they wereade in china. The holes for the cotter pin are placed way to low for the castle nut! Garbage!!! I was able to get the cotter pins to hold the nut but what a pain. Never again. I didn't even consider the rk part # from moog. I'm hesitant on buying the ck part # from moog. Oem seems best in this situation. Lmk yall.
Scotty, I did see a parts car all the way in Fort worth long drive but I might have to. Can't believe it was the only one I saw on craigslist.
oem it is.
