Anyone does this recently?

What is the trick to the rubber bumper, BAAA-5360 on the top of the rear arm, and getting the upper bolt back in? I know you are supposed to install the upper bolt last.. but with the rubber bumper compression pressure on the arm, how do you line up the bolt hole? (jack?)

Sam, when I replaced the rear mounts on my 53, I assembled the arms with the upper and lower mounts and then jacked the cab up until I could get a punch through one of the lower mount holes to line them up with the hole in the frame.

Ok, just finished this earlier today..

net is the instructions I got were wrong..

put the top bolt in first.. then put the rubber bumper in the lower cage and push the arm in and put the lower bolt in last..

SO much easier..
