    Hi guys I purchased these rear lower + upper control arms online for a great price to replace my RR lower control arm that was worn. Figured I'd do the uppers as well since they came in the kit. I'm having issues lining up the rear uppers. Any tips/tricks to this??

    not sure if I was lucky or if a different/better brand made a difference but I only had to work mine into place a little with my ridetech control arms. I also had my gas tank out of the way at the time which probably made for A LOT more room to work but maybe a friend working the axle around while you do the bolt would help?

    You should do them 1 at a time, if you remove both the rear gets all sloppy.
