i sheared the bolts that attach the cv joint to the spindle at the parade autocross...i assume they backed out slightly and when i was shifting into 3rd on a left hand sweeper...boom...that was it and i had to park it... took it apart and was hoping to wire tie it while it is out of the vehicle where it is easier to work on but getting it back in with the spindle attached is not working....any suggestions aside from dropping the motor....?

I just went thru putting mine back on my 76. I had to drop the shift rod and trailing arm on the driver's side to get the stub axle in the trailing arm. Just the trailing arm on the passenger side. I tried and tried to not have to lower the trailing arm, all to no avail. It just seems that the axle with the stub axle installed is a little too long. With the trailing arm dropped by removing the shock bolt, it was easy getting the stub aligned and installed.

EDIT: Also had to remove the exhaust. And I was right, it was sealed good and not leaking! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
