Hey all, Got the lower control arms on yesterday. Minor issue with with tight tabs but I managed. The uppers went on today after some stuggles with a ball joint. When I start my build thread I'll detail that.

Finally after getting the uppers on I noticed something different about the passenger side and the drive side and I'm hoping this is normal (but it doesn't seem it should be).

The driver side upper control arm rear nut is nearly touching the frame. However the passenger side has at least 1/4 inch clearance easy. Does this look ok?

Totally fine. Manufacturing tolerances.

10-4, thanks for the feedback!

As a rookie builder these sorts of things put me off - always wondering what sort of problems they introduce down the road. Really glad to hear it is good to go. Thanks again.

When you do a final alignment, you'll see that may change again.
