Rear conrol arms

Good morning. On the .320 and .250 spacers that go next to the arms for mounting, has anyone had issues getting these in without cutting them down thinner? Looks like they need to be about 0.100" thinner.

Yea they were a pain. All the spacers were tight on mine as well. After fighting for awhile used a large crescent wrench to pull the ears a little and went right in.

I made a little spreader out of threaded rod and some nuts and washers to force the tabs out. Came in handy in multiple places on the build.

Sounds like some great southern engineering Ralph. I did not think of that. Really didn't want to shave the spacers down any, because they must have made the that thick for a reason.
