Default One control arm shaft larger?
Been doing suspension work on my 76 and just realized one upper control arm shaft is thicker than the other.. WTF? It not as if it's an offset one. The left is simply thicker.. Should I simply continue or find two shafts of equal size? If swapping, where to find just the shaft cause I already have new bushings..

Thanks

It has probably been replaced at one time. Shouldn't cause any issues to reuse it.
