    Looking for some help. I recently removed my upper control arms on a 65 Electra to rebuild them, new ball joints, bushings and shaft. I had them marked but they were out a long time due to family matters that came up. When I re-installed them for some reason I think they may have been reversed, left on right side and right on left. Should have done them 1 at a time I guess. I'm sure I'll find out when I go for an alignment, but wanted to ask for some feedback from some of you if you can tell from a picture. Give me your thoughts

    Ok thanks, I didn t see any markings when I painted them, but I ll look closer, before I put the drivers side lower arms and springs back in.

    I thought I reversed them one time putting a set on just to make a parts car into a roller but I think it'll be blatently obvious if they're reversed. If nothing else, someone can post a pic &/or they'll be marked L/R as noted above.
