Some previous owner welded the end caps on my upper control arms...

[HeavyHauler]

I took the suspension apart on my 1968 Chevy C10 396 shortbed fleetside truck and was in the process of trying to remove the upper control arm shafts when I noticed somebody had placed a 1/2 inch bead of weld on each of the control arm shaft end caps. They did it to both the passenger and driver side! LOL!

Was there ever a common issue with the upper control arm shaft end caps coming loose on these trucks?

Anyways I guess that I will need to hit the classified here to see if anybody has a set of upper control arms for sale.

Ya never know what you will find working on old cars and trucks that is for sure!
