lower control arms
I just pulled the lower control arms off my 75 and got the bushings and cross shafts out. Upon inspection, I noticed that the control arm where the bushing go through may be bent. I am not sure if it is suppose to look this way or if sometime in the past, "Bubba" decided to use a press and replace the bushings. Does anyone have any pictures or measurements of the two ears where the bushings are located?

I can't get to the garage right now to measure but the faces should be parallel to each other and not show any signs of distortion. Very easy to bend if removing the shaft/bushing incorrectly.
