    guys i know I have come across these photos before...just can't seem to find them now....but i'm finally fixing up my front suspensions/arms after replacing the bushes and ball joints......can someone just guide me to some thread/photos of the front suspension/arms setup....the wheel arch without the wheels just to make sure i got the arms in the right direction and the wires/clips all back to it's original location. just for a final visual inspection that nothing is out of it's place... thanks.

    J. Salmon,

    You know one of the lock-nuts on one of your upper A-arms is loose in that photo, right?

    just to quadruple check here.....the longer bit of both the upper and lower arms are facing the front of the car right........

    Correct. Caliper is at the rear. Interesting when you look at the photos how the upper A arm is far from horizontal... it's tilted way down at the back. I presume the angle is related to anti-dive anti-squat parameters, but it sure looks crazy when you just look at the mounting points!
