Hey FABO
I just installed some tubular uppers & they are TIGHT in their install pivot point where the cam bolts go.. I mean it can be swung up and down my hand but not w/out effort is this 'normal'???
I even sanded off the fresh paint to get them but its real tight in there
 
Unless you have tightened the cam bolts like crazy I think a bit of resistance when moving new parts for hand should be fine.
 
i think your right.. I wear myself out when in doubt but better save than sorry
 
Swap the ends for heim joints. That will free them up.
 
mine were real tight as well, but everything aligned fine and drives fine
 
Mine were really tight, I actually opended the mounting points slightly with a porta-power.
And I had to trim them for full travel.
If you think about it, with every front end alignment they will be tweeked some.

Which set of tubular upper arms did you install?
