I got the front two Bolts in the Skid in but having a little problam Getting in the rear bolts. IM off by like an Inch at most, not that far away. But you Can't Pull it back, so fustrating. Friend told me to loosen up my transfer Rods but my sled dosn't have them. 05 Suspensions dont have them. Any Help would be awesome.
Is there something im missing?

Put a ratchet strap around the suspensions arms and crank them in until they line up. This works really well.

ther is an echo in here.
The strap works great when you are alone.

I put ratchet strap on mine before I remove it so It goes back in really easy.
i undid my liwiting straps and that gave me a little wiggle room

take the bolts out of the bottom of your transfer rods and then put them back in when you're done - works perfect.

If you can't fix it with duct tape, it's BROKE!
write this down.
no straps, pulling, tugging, or cut hands.
loosen drive shaft bearing set screws
back off the transfer rod lower bolts 3/8in
back off rear idler adjustment all the way, move axle ahead and tighten axle bolts.
put fra adjuster in the soft/upper setting.
lift sled so that the front shaft will just fit under the fram next to the drive shaft
then slide the front into the track so it is headed tward center
now reach through the track and pull the skid tward you while lifting it up and down
lower rear of sled while holding back on skid to pull it behind the drive shaft
now install the front bolts, dont tighten
now go to the rear bolts, lower the sled onto them(two putty knives help to guide it past the inner braces)
install these bolts, dont tighten
now lift the back of the sled, the weight of the suspenion will lift the center/fra shaft into place, you may need to wiggle it a bit to get it up past the rivots(this is the reason for not tightening any bolts and loosening the bearing locks)
now tighten all suspension bolts
lock tight and tighten the bearing set screws
tightening the supsenion first will make sure that the bearing has no side load on it.
