Default Upper control arms

Hello everyone. Just need to confirm what I already believe.

so I am rebuilding my upper control arms installing the bushings. My question is. Does it matter what way the rods are placed in the arms. Because mine have a small bump on both of the arms but only on the the one bolt area. So is there a left and right or does it matter.

thanks
scott

I'm not sure about the rods being Left or Right, but the upper control arms are Left Only and Right Only
arms. There are threads that explain the differences.
