I agree with Alan, springs on rear panel only. But I believe if I'm not mistaken that the 70 Challenger used both spacers . The thick ones on the back panels and the thin spacers on the front panels.

I think the thick is correct, vendors just going with cheapest part.
It looks like all the vendors are selling the thin spacers, probably cost less.
I found this, same description, but thicker.

R/T Specialties lists for window arm cranks  (1) spacer part #2935231 front.  (2) spacer part # 2935232  Thick Rear. Google the #'s and you get Dalescuda shop, DMT sez cudas got thin front,  thick rear, challengers got 4 thin. there are no part # on thick or thin spacers, So I went to my parts wall , found the baggie with springs and spacers. found 4 springs, 2 thick and 2 thin spacers . So it would appear cudas got thick / thin and challengers got all thin

Any Challenger owners able to take a pic of what they have?

The thin spacer up front on my looks terrible, big gap and wobbles.

Maybe my door panel is pushed in, why I asked about the springs.

I'd like to see what others have, but I'm leaning towards the repo parts listing is wrong.

Good tip on the springs.  I've had a set for years and never knew what they were for or how they were installed.  Prior to using them on my Challenger convertible I had to use the thicker 'Cuda spacers.  With the springs installed the correct thinner Challenger spacers look correct.
