heres what i do, i stand on the skid with a peace of rope tied around the cross shaft and the skid when the spring conpresses i tie it tight,and then just pull the skid up into place,if it not lined up just release the rope until it lines up and then you can get the bolts in...reddog
 
Any luck putting suspension in?

I just put mine in last week. I could not get it in without pulling out the entire suspension and then putting it in as a unit. I messed around for about and hour trying to flex it around to get the bolts lined up. No way!

Once I commited to taking the entire thing out it took me another 1 - 1.5 hours to completely disaasembly everything and compress the suspension on the ground and bolt it together. Then I lifted the whole thing in. I would never try to do it on the sled again.
