So I installed my lift today and run in problem when I try to install the drop bracket, how in the world do you remove the upper arm bolt, it stop on the exhaust before breaking free therefore i cannot remove it to get the bracket in

How did you get it out without removing the exhaust ?

I was able to use a prybar and move the exhaust enough to get the bolt out.

I cut bolt, bought another grade 8 bolt and put it back in the opposite way. I tried using a bottle jack to move the exhaust and it wasn't enough.
