You have to grind the bottom side of the A arm. Where it bolts up.

I did that. What I meant was the steering knuckle wouldn't go unough
Upright to put it in place but I took care of that with a swift kick :Grin:

so the lower control arm was keeping the upper ball joint from dropping far enough?
yeah, it happens. disconnecting the sway-bar mounts from the frame gives the lower control arm a little extra down travel and makes it easier to get the upper bj in to place.
