No, but for some reason some bushings and or arms are different. Another
possibility is that the originals were not shimmed right in the first
place. I always get a set of the larger washers when planning to do
these and they are usually needed.

Hi All,
Now...I am confused??
Do the bushings come in three different sizes,
or is it the washers that come in three different thickness'?
thanks,
