sjhafa Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 I removed both rear control arms to get them blasted while I was prepping them for new bushings, well crap they are identical. I think the drivers side gets flipped upside down ( if that make sense)? Can anyone confirm this? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2126 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 You must be new to Z's!!! They are fine and are as installed from the factory. They can be used on either side by flipping one over. This was done to keep manufacturing costs down. Don't feel alone, you're not the first to question the rear control arms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjhafa Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 Thanks guys I'll sleep easier tonight, My first car I bought as a kid was a very used 260 and later a 81 Turbo ( wish I still had it). It drove me nuts looking at this problem. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolane Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Haha...I actually thought I could buy another set way back when and use the right on the left side to get them to match...until I thought about it a little harder. Dumb Dumb Dumb me! It bugs me too, but I guess it does no harm (other than interfere with the jack stands when I put them under the outer spindle pin on the passenger side)...
