Hey everyone, I am having issues finishing my frankenlift install. I have everything done minus the front drivers side. I have everything in and ready to raise the lower control arm to that I can re-attach the al's upper a arm and tie rods. Every I try to raise the jack to compress the suspension, it raises the jeep instead. What am I missing?

Not missing anything stick a crow bar back in the spring and pry the UCA down to bolt in place

I think I got it together. Took it apart again and had another go at it. Seemed to go together a little better this time. Guess only time will tell. Just have to drive slow as hell to the alignment shop first thing tomorrow. Surprised though, only one broken bolt. Figures it's the upper cleavis holding on the shock.
