the GC ones are 1.5mm thicker, and have an odd lip on the flat side. i was going to say that it mates up with the spherical bushing inside the arm, but it doesn't -- the opening is smaller than the OD of the bushing. hopefully they aren't just wrong, but not sure what the purpose of that cut out is.
I just got a set of Ground Control Rear Arms and they came with 8 washers like this. After reading about the bolt shearing situations, I'm strongly considering returning these GC Arms and just postponing my control arm replacements.

Going to call GC tomorrow and ask them about this issue and if they've heard about it. Anybody already spoken with them?
