70CST.there directions are very bad!the upper ball joint goes in from the top just like the factory ones.You shoud have gotten some bolts with lock nuts to install them.for the bolts use the one that are like your factory ones.One thing to look at also there is no place to mount your brake line to also.i called them and they said just drill a hole in the arm.DO NOT DO THIS.I got a couple of clamps that are coated in rubber and used them.When i questioned them on why they would not put a tab on were you could bolt the brake line to they could not answer it.If you still have problems putting them on go and buy a chiltons manaul those books are a gold mine and help a pile they cover evry thing to do with those trucks.I did them on my 1991 extened cab.

whats your e-mail address I will shoot you over the pdf file for the instructions asap you should have recieved the instructions they would have come in a white envelope that says "do not open" as a joke.... Longlow no one here would tell a customer to drill a hole into his new control arms and if so I would like to know who told you this at ART?

You should post that pdf to a hosting website and then link it into this thread, it will help lots of guys out that have these arms.
