Something's not right....

So with some help these were put on about a 2 weeks ago. Now the still haven't smushed down or back in to look flat. I am at a loss short of letting some grease out. So I'd love to hear the suggestions.

Looks like the whole assembly is slightly too big for the space it was squeezed into. Something had to give and it was the urethane. I doubt that it will right itself. I'd remove/measure/adjust and try again.

What UCAs? Looks like someone got a little carried away with the air gun to me. Make mure you don't have them over-torqued. I've seen it happen way too often.

It's the Built Right UCAs, I will unbolt them and tighten down to torque specs. That bolt is 115 ft lbs, or is that the one that goes through the uniball? They really didn't look like that until the grease went in.

I just put together what I was sent for the Built Right UCAs....so I don't know.

something is wrong, looks like the spacers that go inside the bushings are too short.

Check that thread for torque specs, 115ftlbs sounds like that should be for the uniball bolt only.

The little metal spacers that went inside the bushings didn't sit completely flush....

Well I am thinking of popping the nut off, pulling the grease zerks off, and then re tightening everything. I'm kind of at a loss to get them to look right.

I dont think you can get an impact wrench in there but they looked over torqued. I used a ratchet & an open end. See my All-Pros below.
(ignore the circle, thats were mine were rubbing)
