    Front end spare parts

    Quick question for you all.
    I have assembled and mocked up my front end prior to powder coat today. Copied the diagram below and have a few parts left over from the lower arm hardware. First the linkage adjusters had 2 jam nuts on them so in total I had 10 supplied and clearly only needed 8... Should be good there, but I also have 4 very large washers (PN 12387 I believe) that show up no where in the manual for the front end. I haven't started on the rear yet and they may be for there, but wanted to know for sure.

    Thoughts anyone?

    I believe the large washers are spacers in case the lower control arm mounts are too wide.

    Thanks Mike,
    If that's the case then I won't need them. The bushing sleeve assemblies all fit very snuggly. I wonder why no mention of that in the book anywhere?
