Disconnect the swaybar endlink. That should give you enough travel to get that bastard of a bolt through
That's what I'm assuming you're referring to, but ask if you have other questions.

Haha, yeah it's much easier if you have two people-- one to push down, and one to get the bolt through. Good luck

Unbolt that hard gas line. Should give you a bit more room.

Really small hands help in getting the top mount nuts on.

Use your OEM scissor jack to push the control arm down. And it should go in smoothly.
