leveling kit help

[jawsla503]

Alright i have a 07 ram 1500 4wd. im in the middle of installing a 2.5 rough country leveling kit. im at the point of reassembly right now. the problem that im having is that i cant get the upper control arm/ball joint to meet the top of the spindle. i have both sides off also. any one got any pointers or hints that could help me? any help would be greatly appreciated.

are you working on a lift or using a jack and jack stands on the floor? You can use either a pole jack or a floor jack to raise and support the spindle enough to pull the upper control arm down and through the spindle.

I'm using jacks and jack stands and and had tried just using the jack. I got the driver side together last night with the help of some ratchet straps. I know that's not exactly the right way but it worked. Have to wait for all this snow to clear before I finish the passenger side up.

Well if the ratchet straps worked once and it didn't look sketchy, do that again. Using the floor jack to support the spindle didn't work?
