I thought re-installing my subframe would be pretty straight forward…But i guess not ☹

I lined up everything and started lifting and after a few cm it gets stuck and starts to lift the chassis off the safety stand.

can someone tell me if im missing something or could possibly help out?? Im in brampton.

Try and screw all 4 nuts on to it or two at a time. it should shimmy its way up to the top

thanks for the tip. I finally got it on last night, the inner diameter of the solid bushing was almost the same as the diameter of the stud. This made it a press fit
