Here are the parts we used

- stock upper control arm
-88-98 3/4 ton spindle
-81 lower control arm
- stock wheels

Where did i go wrong?
I'm assuming the "ears" on the orig c/a are hitting the frame, right? Can the "ears" be ground enough to set proper camber w/o excessive weakening of c/arm?

Now, getting away from the M-Mouse suggestion above(which still might work!?): If it were me and I had no access to this forum, I'd try FIRST swapping upper stock control arm to the '81 to match the '81 lower you already have. (1)Why did you use the '81 on the lower position in the first place? (2)And why did you choose the '88-'98 spindle? (3)What did your 88-98 3/4 ton spindle come from?
