Just joined, but have been relying on the great info and knowledge from the forum for quite awhile. I need some "been there, done that" advice. I have the TF 8-arm 3" lift on Rubicon Hard Rock Unlimited. I'm in the process of adjusting the upper control arms to provide more positive caster, and started with the passenger side arm. I removed and shortened the arm, but now cannot get the axle bracket bolt holes to align to reinstall the arm. I've searched other posts for solutions and have tried ratchet straps and putting a jack under the joint. I can get it close but no cigar. I'm currently flying solo on this one so don't have anyone to push/pull the tire. Questions:
1. Do I need to unbolt the track bar when trying to push/pull the axle back?
2. When I'm able to recruit my son to assist, should the Jeep be in Neutral while trying the push/pull on the tire?
3. Do I need to remove the lower control arm and then install the upper?
4. Any other words of wisdom?
Thanks in advance!
