    Upper control arm settings

    I've looked at the approximate settings in the manual.

    The passenger side is easy to set up as it looks exactly like the diagram in the manual.

    On the driver side the arm is reversed to the manual.

    Do I still use the measurement as per the manual which would make the side with 2 measurements the trailing edge rather than the leading edge.

    Otherwise it is difficult to get the measurements right

    I just completed this task 2 days ago. I found that as you described, you just reverse the measurements for the DS. They all fell into place with doing it that way. Also, I was confused at first with the measurements... It is from the center of the grease fitting to the center of the bolt head... I was trying to measure out on the side of the UCA... just a blond moment... or in my case gray...
