when fitting the top arms into sub frames the large washer should sit inside the sub frame recess right ?

also should go as follows

nut, spring washer, retaining plate, large washer, on the engine side

spring washer and nut on the firewall side ?

Dont forget the other thrust washer on the firewall side! Oh, and also the rubber dust seals which fit over both thrust washers.

forgot to mention those but I had them on there

I just wasn't sure why the large washer wasn't sitting inside the subframe recess, I think the powder coating must have made it slightly thick, ill sand a bit back so it fits inside
