Helpful tip for installing lower control arms
Install the front LCA bolt 1st. After swinging the LCA up to install the rear bolt, the LCA is usually too far forward since the springs push the rearend rearward. To push the rearend forward, use the stock jack and put it between the rear of the rear tire and the rear wheelwell. Turn the jackbolt and watch the bolt holes until they line up. Install bolt. Torque both bolts to spec.
