Re: Upper control arm ?

No they are not. The hole for the upper bump stop should be to the rear.

Not a great pic but you can see where the bump stop is on the upper arm and it's to the rear of the arm.

yea Don there is a difference. Here is a pic of the passenger side. It looks as if its swept forward a bit and as chevy mike said the bump stops are towards the back
