Top A-arm help

I know this may sound dumb but after I got my front suspension put back together this weekend(it's beens a year since it ook it apart) something just didn't look right, I think i've got my top a-arms on backwards, as in driver and passenger sides reversed. I didn't even think about it when i put them on, just grabbed'em and started wrenchin. anybody got a pic I can compare with?

Re: Top A-arm help

If i remember correctly if they are on opposite sides they dont line up real well with the lower A-arms...

Geez, let's try it again.

Below is a pic of the UCA. The bracket holding the brake hose is towards the front:
