I am attempting to install Teraflex adjustable front lower flexarms. I have arms set at suggested starting length from Teraflex instructions. I cannot get the axle to "push" forward far enough to bolt them on. Any tips?

 

Watch this video on how he used the jack to help move the axle in order to get the bolt holes to line up. I did the same thing and still do when taking them off and putting back on to make my life easier. Unless someone else has better spots to place the jack chime in.

I used Ratchet straps. They are really useful for this purpose.

 

I always use a floor jack and the stock jack to manipulate the pinion. This will rotate the holes where you need them to be.

I've even used wheel chocks for small adjustments. Put one in front or behind the wheel depending on which way you need it to move it. Then drive up the chock and check alignment. Took me 4 or 5 attempts but managed to get it done without jacking it up.

 

Thanks guys! I was able to get it by putting my jack under the pinion.

 

Of course it helped that it was on my friends lift.
