Took it out and remeasured a few times vs the original. One new bushing was installed cocked and it screwed up the lower side hole dimensions.

Old arm is still fine, so reinstalled it- went to plan.
I’m annoyed, as I wanted to know everything in the suspension/steering was new. Now I have to either send this one back for a replacement- postage will be a killer, or just buy another one elsewhere.
Buy the Superpro bushes for the upper control arm, about $120, and fit them after knocking out the bushes. What did you do with the ball joint?

Re' postage, contact the seller and see if they will the return. Or did you get it from overseas?
