I think it was the same on the inside and outside. I tried prying the frame apart a little but I couldn't get it past the point where it just sprung back to where it was, so I just used brute force and my massive strength (haha) to get them in. Eventually got them, but like I said and you said, these old car frames were all over the place back then with tolerances so you can't possibly make something that fits easily in every car.

We are constantly trying to make them better. What additional information would you like to see in them? Sometimes it is hard for us to relay the information to the customer due to the fact that we know how it gets installed. I now take care of our instructions and would love to hear some input from our customers to make them better. You will not offend me, I want to make them better.

I'll take a look at the instructions again and make some notes so you have something from my point of view.


I noticed your arms are a couple of years old, we were running them right at the spacer width then. We changed that to 1/16" wider to help prevent having to modify the spacers, but yours would have been before the change

That's good to hear! Glad you guys are improving all the time....that deffinately would have made it easier! It was just a little frustrating when they wouldn't fit and both parts came from the same vendor. Glad this has been resolved! Nicely done!


It does make them a joy to drive. We just bought another 2nd Gen, WOW it is scary with the stock suspension.



PM me your name and address and I will get some heading your way.

On the way!

Thanks!
