Are the lower control arms the same for either side?

I did not think so but what do I know...

These are the same..

Anyone here have the Wayne Due / AM frame? I could use some help...

Thanks, JoshC

When assembled, you want the upper balljoint slightly to the rear of the lower balljoint. That way, you have some positive caster. The upper BJ should be 1/2" to 3/4" to the rear of the lower one. It's hard to tell from the photo how they mount to the frame, so I can't tell you which way they should go.

Thanks for the reply. I shall have better pics up tomorrow.

The part that really has me puzzled is that the lower arms are the same. Both units are cut the same, and cut away at the same points. It seems like I may have received two of the same, instead of one for each side. Luckily tomorrow is Monday, hopefully Wayne will be in to take my call.

Thanks again! Josh

Here is the only other real pic I have uploaded of the mounting point:

I have found that if you send Wayne an email you have better luck getting a hold of him. [email protected]

Looks like you do have 2 of the same side, give Wayne a shout he'll straighten you out.

Yes, you have two left LCA's.

Thanks for the reply guys. That is what I though was going on.

I am sure Wayne will take care of me as soon as he knows about it. (checks email)

Did I mention that this frame has the best looking welds....

Thanks again! Josh
