THIS IS FROM GNTTYPE.ORG --not yelling
NOTE: If you are installing Hotchkiss upper arms for the first time now, subtract 3/8 inch worth of shims from each shim stack before reinstalling the shim stacks.
Install 1/2 inch thick spacers on each upper control arm mounting stud. They can be made from 1/2 inch thick 1.25 inch steel bar stock. Cut four pieces into 1.25 inch lengths and drill a 1/2 inch hole in the center of each. Re-install the shim stacks on the studs from which they were removed and install the Hotchkiss upper control arms. Install the nuts on the studs and torque.
NOTE: The 1/2 inch spacers are based on the use of Hotchkiss upper control arms, which are 3/8 inch shorter than stock arms. Use of different upper control arms will affect the thickness of the spacers required.
