HELP! lower strut bar install can't get it to line up
This is ridiculous. I can't get the two holes to line up on my lower control arms to reinstall the bolt. I've banged away with a BFH to get it to line up, its as if it is angled funny and wont line up no matter what. I've tried to use a jack to jack it up/down etc...
I do have a tein h tech 1.5" drop with the 3 washer camber trick in the back I put in a few months ago...dont know if that is making this difficult or not.
Help please, I thought this would be an easy 5 minute job I need my car tomorrow! thanks!

Thanks...got it. It always works out like that, post a rant and lo and behold it popped in 10 minutes later - guess I just needed a break. Had someone help me with the front, a LOT easier to align with two people instead of one.
It was actually the LCA that was slanted. So the bolt would go in the first hole but point upwards b/c the LCA was slanted up. I had to really REALLY hold that LCA down and pull to finally get it to pop in, like I said, I think I was just tired, needed a break.
thanks!
