Need 1984 Honda Civic ball joints, control arms, or a front-end kit? This page is 3rd-gen Civic (1984–1987). 1980–1983 2nd-gen and 1988–1991 4th-gen arms and bushings are not a straight swap. Leave a comment with the year and the noise if you want a part-number check.
A clunk at low speed is usually a ball joint or sway link. Wander or inner-edge tire wear is more often a tie rod or a worn control-arm bushing. Most people replace the control arm as a complete unit with the ball joint already pressed in.

- Wander, loose steering feel, or inner-edge tire wear → outer/inner tie rod (ES2095R / EV180) or a worn control-arm bushing.
- Growl or rumble that rises with road speed → wheel hub/bearing (513034).

While you’re in there
While you’re tearing into the front end, inspect the matching side and the sway-bar links — one-sided wear is common after a hit or a long alignment delay. Confirm the hub (513034) if you have a growl that rises with road speed.
Shop notes only — not a service manual. Use the factory procedure or a Haynes/Chilton manual for wrench work, torque, and safety steps. Leave a comment with drivetrain, suspension type, and the symptom if you want a part-number check.
