So Im working on my first lower control arm, and getting it back into the truck is a major PITA.

The problem I'm having is when I compress the spring with the jack, and push the LCA up into the truck to try and fasten it, it starts raising the truck off the jack stands and I stop cause thats not something Im going to work with.

Does anyone have and tricks for seating and installing the lower control arms on a c1500? :(

Belated Welcome!
Like the work you've put into it so far. Looks good.
No more RWL's on the tires! Yay!
Can't see supplying free advertising for a Co. just 'cause I bought their product.
Their ad budget, which I already contributed to when I bought the tires, is included in the cost of such!

Thank You! Id have to agree I hate the white letters as well. Not a huge fan of these wheels or tires either but they are what they are for now.
