Lower Control Arm Doesnt go back in????

[idrift]

Ok, so I did my first road test today of about 2 miles.
I came back and checked the lca's out to make sure they were
staying in place and the T bars also. Looks like the drivers side that
was giving me trouble is nice and tight up against the kingpin shoulder
and the poly bushing insert shoulder is nice and tight up against the
lower control arm.

The passengers side has the poly bushing nice and tight up against the
kingpin shoulder but the bushing slid or I guess you could say arm? so the
shoulder of the poly bushing is about maybe 1/8" from the lca. I would think
if it stays put after a few more miles and doesnt go fore or aft anymore
it should be good to go correct?

Thanks for the help and support guys, much appreciated!

yes and maybe tighten up the strut rod nut some to bring it forward.

looks like the wrong bushing on lower control arm installed looks like stut bushing

yes and maybe tighten up the strut rod nut some to bring it forward.

I thought about that, I also thought maybe I could shorten that spacer
inbetween the poly bushing halves and that might help too.

I hope they can align it.

askewed? like the lowers forward too much?

Took my dart to get aligned tonight. The guy did a great job. He even
adjusted the T bars so the car sits perfect. He said it aligned perfect
so that was good to hear.

Thanks all for your help.
