The Honda 23436-VA4-J02 Clutch Arm is a genuine OEM replacement designed for HRA214, HRA215, HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 lawn mowers. As a direct Honda OEM component, this Clutch Arm is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring correct engagement geometry and reliable operation with no guesswork on fit. Honda supersedes parts at serial-number breaks, so confirm your mower's serial number against the fitment table before ordering to make sure part number 23436-VA4-J02 is the right call for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Engagement Accuracy — manufactured by Honda to deliver the same pivot geometry and clutch actuation as the original arm, maintaining crisp, consistent engagement feel.
- Direct OEM Replacement — this Clutch Arm is a like-for-like replacement that drops into the same mounting position as the original component on compatible mowers.
- Broad Mower Coverage — fits HRA214, HRA215, HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 Honda walk-behind lawn mowers, including both residential HRA and commercial HRC models.
- Serial-Number Sensitive — Honda updates parts at production serial breaks; always verify your mower's serial number against the compatibility table to confirm this is the correct arm for your machine.
- Restore Positive Clutch Control — a worn or damaged clutch arm produces sluggish, inconsistent, or non-responsive engagement; replacing it restores the clean, positive actuation the operator-presence and drive systems depend on.
The Clutch Arm is a mechanical pivot component in the clutch actuation system of these Honda walk-behind mowers. When the operator squeezes the handlebar bail or drive lever, the Clutch Arm translates that cable pull into mechanical movement that engages or disengages the drive or blade clutch mechanism. Over time, the arm can wear at its pivot point or bend under load, resulting in a sluggish or incomplete clutch engagement — meaning the drive may not fully engage or the blade may not stop cleanly when the lever is released. Replacing a worn Clutch Arm with the correct OEM part restores precise, responsive control and keeps the mower operating as Honda designed it.
