Installing driver side sway bar link, and I can't get the new link installed to be bolted in. There's not enough space between the LCA and the sway bar to jam it in. Any ideas for getting more space between the two to slip in the link?

 

I had to use heavy ratchet straps one time to pull everything together to bolt it together

 

That's odd, because I need to pull them apart not together. I'm going to try setting down one wheel and jacking up just the one side to see if it'll give me more room

 

I ltook the swar bar bolts loose at the frame, connected the links, then put the frame bolts back. It made the link part more flexible.

 

+1 - I did sway bar bushings at the same time so I didn't have any problems gettings the links in

 

That's smart. I ended up unbolting the other sway bar link on the top and then lining them both up to drop it down

 

Yeah, I assumed you had both sides loose and one has effect on the other
