I want to say this just came up with someone recently, they ended up having to file the holes out or something... let me see if I can find it

Sorry, can't help more than that

yes that was me but i have been in touch with pol and they say they took there paten from an original control arm and they fit but they dont . there lower arm shock holes are 6mm to close together just thought i would let them know . i told them i am happy with there arms but who ever buys these will have the same problem its definitely not a problem with the shocks as they fit my original arms
