well i am putting in lowering springs and doing a 5-lug conversion on my 89' coupe. WEll i had two jackstands holding the car up in the rear by placing them on the rear end. I then proceded to drop out the lower control arms like an idiot. WEll when i dropped them out the rear end shot up and is now in a way "tucked" in the wheel well. Once i placed the new springs in the control arm and raised the arm, the hole for the bolt would no longer line up because of the rear ends position high in the well.
So then i jacked the back up and put the jack stands back towards teh gas tank on the frame rails. BUt the situation now is that the rear end is only supported by the uppers and the driveshaft and now sits very low down. SO once again the control arm wont line up right and when i jack teh car up the control arm wants to raise at an angle and now sit in the poclet on the axle tubes.
so my question is
How do i raise the control arms and the rear end so taht the hole lines up for the bolt to go through the control arm???????
