Upper control arm bolts and spacers?

[1980GMC]

Im trying to remember if the thicker spacer goes on the front bolt or back.

No shims or anything yet just the ring that was originally fitted on the bolt behind the shims. There's 2 sizes and I didnt notice when I first took it off.


Thanks.

I think it had a big round spacer, cont remeber where. I will look in the book for reference. I have to put mine together tomorrow.

K so I borrowed a picture to show what Im talking about.



The one ring is about 1/4" thick and the other is about 3/8", but I cant tell from that picture which one is which. Im thinking the thicker one goes on the rear bolt.

Thanks

I just put mine on today. It had the bigger facing the front of the truck. Small spacer to the rear. What are you doing to your front end?

Just reassembly now. Bought CPP arms and am putting them on. Im going to take a look at the old bolts too, to see how they match up when in the frame.


Thanks rene495
