Installing OEM Suspension Help
I'm trying to install the 2 rear suspension. To take out the strut and spring we have to take out several other bolts/nuts. After switching the strut and spring, I'm having a hard time lining the holes back up to the lower control arm. No matter which bolt insert first, the last hole doesn't line up. It's always end up about 1 inch too far out (Looking from the rear, the passenger side lower control arm is 1 inch to far left). Any ideas?

Is the LCA still connected to both the subframe and the knuckle? If so, you might have to put a spring compressor on the spring to compress it a bit. You could also remove the bolt holding the LCA to the knuckle, but then you'll have to wrestle it back in later on.

Or if thats not it take pictures cause Im not exactly sure where it isnt lineing up (strut, knuckle, etc) |
When i did my lowering springs I had to have a buddy pull down on the RLCA to get the bottom bolt to line up to bolt up the damper. It took a fair bit of muscle. Some say to disconnect the sway bar to make it easier. Is that the one you are talking about?
