Need quick help with moser 12 bolt!
Need quick help with moser 12 bolt! hey everyone...i just started to button up my 12 bolt and get it bolted back in the car and im having a few problems
the problem:
torque arm wont line up..bottom bolts are in but top bolts are off by approx 1/2 to 3/4 inch.
the facts:
all stock suspension with the heater hose mod....we have tried to let the suspension down and jack it all the way up and neither way seems to do the trick
ideas:
it has LCA relocation brackets and we have the stock LCAs bolted to the middle hole right now...it seems the carrier needs to rotate forward from the top...do we drop the LCAs down to the bottom hole..
any help will be greatly apprieciated...
thanks

When i did my first rear end,,i had to use a lonnng pry bar to force the TA so the holes would line up right,,then i had a hell of a time gettin my tools up there to tighten them down....
The second time i did my first rear end
(sounds like that ol cheech and chong skit) i put the rear on a floor dolly, and put the TA on the rear end while it was on the ground,, then wheeled the the assembly up and under the car,,,all by myself. This method proved to be MUCH easier to not only get the TA on the rearend, but to fully tighten those bolts.
hope this helps

cool...that definatly helps..it just sucks that the things is completely in place minus the TA right now...i think the pry bar is in effect...if that doesnt work then i guess we will loosen everything up...thanks man!....anyone else have any experiences like this?
