? about torque arm install

i have been working on the bolt for the bushing for way to long. is it possible to install the bushing, then the torque arm by sliding it into the bushing and then bolting it to the rear end housing?

thanks

That's how I did mine. I started the top bolt for the bushing "clamshell". Lubed the inside of the bushing and the TQ Arm w/ 80w 90. It slid right in there!!! Then you'll prolly have to slide it back out a little to get it to connect to the rear. The angle formula is fool proof, also. It's kind of a pain to do in the ground...

ya, i got it in on saturday morning. took me about 30 min. i removed the bushing from the ta, installed it, tightened the bolt, slid ta in, and bolted to rear. much easier than what the directions said.
