Rear lower control arm direction
This is my first post. I just took off and boxed my rear lower control arm and realized that one end has little teeth on it and the other end is smooth. Are the teeth suppose to be facing the front or back of the car. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

As to which end of the LCA fastens to the car and which to the rear axle, it makes no difference. The LCA is symmetrical.

Thats what I thought when I took them off, but then noticed that one end was different so I just wanted to make sure. Thanks again.

Just for future reference if anyone is curious, if this question were to pertasin to bushing choice where you buy LCA's with one side urethane and one side rodend, the urethane attaches to the chassis and the rodend attaches to the axle.
