Two different sets of instructions - the base kit - states to mount UCA on the horizontal bracket / chassis with accompanying flange nuts.
Full donnor kit specifies mounting UCA on the vertical bracket / chassis.

I've ordered the base kit, but am using non donor parts and will be using the FFR Lower control arm for this build. Does this mean I should be mounting the UCA on the vertical bracket or the horizonntal? If on the vertical, the flange nuts will not fit the veritcal bracket.....use nyloc nut instead?

The horizontal mount is used with donor spindles without SAI correction. The vertical mount is used with FFR spindles or donor spindles using SAI mod adapters.

The side mount is for the FFR spinldes only. If you are using Mustang spindles, you will have to use the top mount.
