     I've got a set of Dennis Quella's adjustable upper rear A arms that
     I'm
     ready to install, but when I did a test fit to the top of the
     upright, the
     taper provided with the A arm is much too big.  If you have
     installed a set
     of these, did you have to have the hole at the top of the upright
     machined
     out to fit the larger taper on the Quella A arm?  Is there a sleeve
     pops out
     of top of the upright?
