Its the NON adjustable version. Whats the best way to twist the rear back in position to get this thing on? Ive tried to leverage it to no avail. Should I loosen the LCA's (boxed) and maybe that will help? Just cant get this rear to budge! Stock rear BTW.

Ohhhhh.....makes sense but i need it to go down....maybe a bottle jack between the top and body of the car? Great answer though wouldnt have thought of that.

The torque arm will be unloaded with the car supported on jack stands and the rear end hanging. With the car set up like this you should be able to do anything you want with the torque arm by hand.

Im trying to line up the 2 bolt hole on the rear. But, i see what ur sayin. The rear of the car is on ramps......unload the rear and i should be able to move it easily. Got it.

This is exactly how I installed mine 3 months ago.

Put a bottle jack under the rear end, where the panhard bar bolts up, and you can easily "rotate" the rear axle....

Worked PERFECT Leadfoot! Thanks very much for all the responses. Torque arm is bolted on!

Yep, I always position the jack under the pumpkin but as far back as possible and it swivels the nose up and down very easily. And who uses a bottle jack these days????

Just another tool that managed to find it's way into my "arsenal" over the last 40 years.....
