I don't have that much play in front though .but back seems like it would flex Is there some washer I am missing? looked in manual doesn't show one its really bugging me .I popped off lock washer on pin took pin out and dropped upper arm. not sure if slack was there before removing upper arm or not please help

its doesn't seem as loose seems like new one moves more figure only way find out is to run it then see if breaks anything lol reason I broke arm hit a corner of garage and it hit the upper arm do you think I made it loose from crash? nothing is bent or broke I looked it all over

the lower arm can be tweak . pin may have pushed through on inserts. hub mount may be twisted. chassis can get torqued

tower or shock maybe bent, screw/bolt , standoff may be jacked,

very seldom ONLY ONE THING gets jacked , one gets broke but the rest gets tweaked breaking it.

accelerated mass ---->BOOM---into pieces. keep looking theres a reasoning
 
Is your upper and lower arms in rear slide back and forth where pins hold it on shock tower or does it fit tight ? mine slide back and forth a little
