How would I be able to put the poly bushing onto the end of the torque arm if the bushing was already attached to the rotator plates and the cross member? I would have to spin the torque arm dozens of times to get it threaded onto the poly bushing, and I don't think there's room under the car to be spinning the torque arm around like that, is there?

Huh? Spin the torque arm?

This is how I would do it. Leave the crossmember on. Thread the poly end into the torque arm all the way, but dont tighten the jam nut yet. Now..rotate the poly end 90 degrees. Insert the bolt from the bottom up though one side of the rotator plate and through the poly bushing. Now, rotate the poly end back down so its in line with the crossmember mount. You should now be able to put the other rotator plate on, and the lower bolt through. Tighten it all up.

You should be able to wrestle the torque arm alittle. Up, down, towards the drivers side...to give you enough room to move things. I know mine will move around pretty good if I ask it nicely. It really shouldnt be too hard.

I think it is going to have to go on the backburner for a few days. I can fire it up without a torque arm, but I need to get this PCV mess sorted out first. It seems like the most frustrating things for me have come in the last week or so... Grrrr...

As long as your drive shaft is in and you have fluid, go ahead.
