Upper control arm washers

1982 ½ ton C10
I am upgrading my 70 c10 to power steering using a 1982 doner. Ran into a problem on my suspension rebuild, 2 leftover washers in my bucket (small ones in the pic).

I figured out where they go. 1 washer per upper control arm next to the rear bushing. Circled in red in the pic. The picture is a lot better on my computer, I can see them clearly. It bugs me I left them out, but they don’t appear to be needed. I can’t find them in the catalogs. I have not found a thread here of anybody using them in their rebuild, no you tube videos either. So……..can I leave them out?

Re: Upper control arm washers

I doubt there will be significant impact. I'd roll w/o them.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
