Integral link install tip
 
So. In another post I was mentioning my suspension rebuild and fighting with integral link installation. Here's the trick. Assemble the suspension arm only partially on the ball joint. This will still allow enough movement in the ball joint to install the integral link like so......

The first one took me a few hours. The 2nd one took me 15 minutes.

Excellent tip - worked for me. Thanks! It's important to first finger tighten the top bolt of integral link to wheel carrier - you don't want to risk stripping the threads in the wheel carrier.
