Received two different Mevotech/SPC UCAs?

[gimlithepirate]

I just received my Mevotech adjustable UCAs (the ones that are reboxed SPCs) and somehow I received two completely different SPC UCAs:

So, I totally expected to receive an older SPC design, but did not expect to receive two different SPC designs. Is the Silver one the current design? Am I going to have a problem if I run a different design on each side? I reached out to where I bought them from to try and get this resolved as I would like to have symmetrical parts, but am just curious if this is a mountain out of a molehill or not.

FWIW, that uncoated balljoint looks like a knock-off, I thought SPC zinc coated all of their balljoints.

No help on the arms themselves, I bought some several years ago and they were the lower design. The upper looks forged?

I think the uncoated one is just the older version.

It looks like I got one newer and one older part... Which is unfortunate.

I got a set of spc's about 5-6 years ago and they are the tubular ones with zinc coated non greasable fittings. The last set i got from mevotech and they are forged with greaseable zinc coated fittings. IIRC I read somewhere they updated the arms.
