i had to unbolt it to put in the new struts and now i cant seem to get the bolt back on the right side at the end link it just wont line up, i have everything unbolted and loose so i can move it a little but i just cant get it on, i got the left side on easy is there a trick?

if the car is in the air, try jacking up the tire to compress the suspension untill it lines up. that is if that will help your situation..

i tried it with the car on the ground and its far off, it helps a little if i jack up the other side but its still off by like an inch, im gona try again in the morning

put the front on jackstands and use the jack to move the control arm up and down.. should work perfectly

when i put it on jack stands should i put pressure on the suspension or on the frame? i thought you had to have load on it
