If your by yourself use a good wratchet strap. Attach to the frame then to the axel.

Best way to do it, when you take the old trackbar off your body and your axles wont be lined up anymore so set it to the recommended length and wiggle that steering wheel until it lines up and you can shove that bolt through there
