Damn it, it wont fit.

I got the tubular BMR LCA's and i cant get them to fit. Its the side where the rearend is. THe other side fits perfect. I tried putting grease on it and it still wont slide in. A few times it got stuck. I dont wanna ruin the bushings. I was told to play with the rear but its not working.
THanks

that axle is probably twisted a bit. i know i had to put my back against the tire and push on it to get it to line up and slip in.

just keep trying

Takes you this long to the panhard and LCAs, would hate to see you do the spark plugs

j/k

BTW, if you run into problams w/ the torque arms front mounting bolt, just use a pair of vice grips to close the metal brace together to get the bolt in easier. That's if you got the torque arm that mounts to the tranny.

Naa man i had been finished with it, just posted alot later.
Im supposing its gonna be a pain to get the TA on to the tranny? The funny thing is i look under my car and dont see how that drive shaft loop is gonna fit. I really dont need it, but i had bought it thinking i was going to do some major motor work. Might as well put it on since i have it.

I dont think i understand your question. Do you mean how a ta helps? Well its alot stronger then the original so it wont flex as much. Im guessing the hp will be used more efficiently. Maybe somone else will no more details of whats it good for.

yeah, but you can actually SEE the discs.

Maybe it's psychological, but I swear my vert's drilled disks work better in the rain than the blanks did.
