I've re-attached the upper bolt but cannot for the life of me get the lower bolt back in because a brake line is in the way!!! This isn't the first time this has happened to me. It was a bugger to get it out too! I can't get the bolt to line up straight to screw iit in. Pleeeeease tell me what I'm doing wrong!! Or at least what I need to be doing. Thanks.

make sure hte upper bolt is loose, and barley threaded that way you have move movement to get the other one in. you may have to remove the line to get it in if you cant seem to get it started, get the hard one in first.
