i'm putting a 3.5 game changer ARB edition into my 2013 JKU and can't get the rear springs in. i'm drooped as far as i can and tipped the axle to one side and i'm still a couple inches off - looks like I'm limited by the arms/geometry and the e-brake cables(?). i've got the control arms on but haven't hooked up sway bar connectors, track bar or added rear shocks yet. any trick (other than getting a spring compressor)? i figure if i unbolt the control arms i can probably flex it more to get them in but then probably won't be able to get the arms bolted in. thanks, alan

I ordered my 2.5 GC ARB yesterday. Now I am getting all my resources together. I thought I saw somewhere in this thread where someone posted all the torque values for the various bolts in the MC lift install. Has anyone else seen that? If not, does anyone know where I can look those values up?

thanks for the input on getting the springs in. I managed to get them in by unbolting the arms and drooping/tilting all the way. Now it was no fun getting the arms back in once the springs were in but I'm just about done. Can't get the rear track bar in yet but Im assuming that once I get it back on it's wheels I'll be able to either rock it or ratchet strap the body against the frame... Fingers crossed.
