Default Houser long travel arms ?

I just installed a set of Houser long travel arms on my Speed and I noticed a gap between the a-arm bushings and the a-arm mounts on the frame. It's about 3/16" of an inch gap and the arms have movement back and forth on the bolts. I don't think there should be any kind of movement. I have installed many a-arms and they all fit snug between the mounts. Maybe the bushings are under sized, I just don't know. Anyone out there ever seen this or am I missing something? I will call Houser on Monday and try to get an answer. Thanks

I had the same problem on my moto arms as well, but I knew they were missing, substituted regular washers until the new correct ones came in.

Thanks for the response guys. I had a feeling something wasn't right. I will use some washers temporarily.

Iwould still call Houser, just because that was the problem with ours, they are different. Also Cannondale does need something between the bushings and the aluminum.
