Hey guys,

I know this is a silly question but what is the correct orientation of the washer relative to the UCA.

The washer that comes with SPC UCA has a side with the flange (creates convex) and other side is concave. My question is, is the flange side suppose to touch the control arm so that the concave is where the nut or UCA bolt head sits? If the flange side is on touching the UCA rubber gasket, a gap will be created, is that ok?

I think the flange side is suppose to be touching the UCA to create the gap but wanted to double check.

Thanks!

Yes you want there to be a gap at the rubber bushing
