The other side didn't do this...can I just pull it back straight with a nut?

Or, are they hosed and no good anymore?

Thanks!
Dave

 

Let it hang free and try to get everything lined back up and pulled in with a nut. If you need to, use a jack to help you balance/lift/align. It looks like it should be shot, but thats no reason to not try and Macguiver something

 

I had problems with mine too when I put it all back together. I supported that side of the suspension (not w/ a jack though...had a friend who owed me a favor ) and it went together much easier. I also replaced all those god forsaken Torx bolts w/ standard bolts. I'd like to bash the engineer who thought it'd be funny to stick those bastards in there.

 

No kidding Mongse!!! WTF? Studs, bolts, and torx bolts? I'll probably replace mine too.

I'd also like to know who the genius is who put the electrial connector in the AC line RIGHT OVER the passenger side nut? WTF?

I put a C-Clamp on it and it popped right back into place thanks!!!
