I replaced the lower control arm bushings. Now I can’t get my torsion bar slide all the way forward, to fasten the rear bushing bold on the cross member that the rear of my torsion bar anchors to the frame. The whole front wheel assembly has already been reinstalled. Any way I can get the torsion bar slid the last 1/2 inch forward without removing the whole front wheel assembly?

Hello Josh,

From what I can tell, you should be able to reinstall the torsion bar with the front suspension completely assembled. I've attached a copy of the installation procedure along with a diagram of the torsion bar support assembly.

Let me know if you have any additional questions!
