    I bought a set of lightly used uca's from another member, supposed to be for a 1st gen., but they are about 1/2 inch wider than stock. Should there be a spacer on each side, or did I get sold the wrong UCA?

    Some lift, some armor, some scratches..
    I think there should be a washer on both sides of the bushings, not just the outer. X2 on posting a pic of the bj for identification

    Post a picture of the complete UCA. Those don't look like SPC arms to me from that pic.

    1st gen SPC (Light Racing) UCA should look like this:

    These appear to be an all pro knockoff. Parts all measure the same. They have everything I need to finish this setup up, in stock. WHEW!!!!!
