Rear Spindle with Upper Control Arm

August 6, 2013 -

I got the upper control arm into the frame with its spacers around the heim joint and the other end onto the rear spindles. Soap helped slide things together (Thanks Damon!) Also, Joe at Factory Five suggested using the handle of a hammer to try and spread the frame mount tabs apart a little to get things to fit easier. While this helped a little with the lower control arms it helped a lot with the upper control arm since those mounts stick out from the frame further so you have more leverage on them. That tip probably would've helped with the front shocks where I had to file down the spacers to get them to fit.
