Reply to "Rear shock/spring installation"

If you have installed new rubber (original type) a-arm bushings, loosen the four bolts/nuts slightly. As an FYI, these bolts/nuts should only be tightened when the suspension is raised to it's normal "ride" position (i.e. tires on the ground).

As Doug mentioned, the sway bar needs to be disconnected from the a-arm.

Also, remove the nut at the muffler hanger. This will allow the exhaust pipe to drop slightly.

As a last resort, unbolt the exhaust collector flange bolts, or unbolt one end of the half shaft.
