I have been working on my car religiously 3 hour per night for about a month and its been the best thing I've ever done.Just enough time to get rolling and finish something and walk away if something isnt going right.With that said I've got to ask this question.Why is it so hard to get the passenger side lower "A" arm in and the driver side is a breeze.Let me explain...I have heard the legend of the difficult pass. side on many post and I have now experienced it.I'm putting in a Hotchkis set up and decided to change out the control arm bushings to poly.Last night I took up the entire 3 hrs getting the arm in' reinstalling the brakes,new shocks etc for the pass. side. Tonight...expecting the same fight I thought I would probably get the drivers side done and thats it.I had the drivers side control arm in in 5 minutes,no B.S. I had so much time left I started on the rear leaf removal and got the drivers side out.holes drilled out for the "U" bolts, man I had a great night... My question is WHY.Why is the pass. side so hard to get in...its almost like the car is set up for a circle track...with the right side suspension skewed left and is in a constant bind to make left turns. Or is this one of those things like the Camaro lean...nobody really can explain why...Mr Pozzi can you add lib here... Its Midnight here in Tennessee...I figure some of you west coasters should still be rolling so ponder on this and I'll see ya in the morning!
