Upper control arm not lining up

[Rvansickle]

I’m currently installing my 3.5” game changer lift and I’m having issues getting my upper control arm to line up with the hole. I double check my measurements to make sure I have them correct. Note I do have the lower control arms and installed and I double checked the measurements on those and they are correct.… Any advice?

Waiting to install the same. Doesn't the axle twist?

Remove the opposing side upper control arm. That should let you get this side aligned.

^^ 100% this. The other upper is keeping the axle from being able to twist top towards the rear. Unbolt the other upper and rotate ???

also- pop a top! It’s been an hour- we need a status update ??

As you do what is stated, you will need to provide extra support to the axle assembly to keep it from flopping backward. An extra jack under the pinion may help, then adjust as needed.

I ended up taking out the other upper control arm and was able to move the axles around. Worked good!
