I've never had cause to think about that until now, but are they actually different? Yes they are a mirror image looking at them with ball joints in place, but can one start with bare a-arms and press the upper rear ball joints in from opposite directions?

My aftermarket adjustable upper rear a-arms are most certainly interchangeable left to right.

Are they different from WHAT? Each other? Yes, they are mirror image of one another....
