Hmmm, whazza matter? It has screw on caps on each end and because they are threaded inside and out you need to be careful putting them in. There is a bow in the shaft and that sticks inwards normally though for a big block you want that turned around to bow outwards and this changes the pivot point so the whole control arm perch needs to be moved out to allow for camber adjustment.

got all my front end parts from Kanter, at least a-arms, greaseable bushings, good stuff.
if you subscribe to the Fairlaner, go on their web page & their is a good article from a back issue on how to position arms, bushings when installing
