Have adjusted plenty of swing axle torsion bars but not an IRS. It looks pretty straight forward but i'm stuck.
I have all the brakes, backing plate etc gone the cv joint disconnected and the shock disconnected but I cant get enough travel on the trailing arm to get a jack under the spring plates.
Ive seen on other forums where they say you can swing the trailing arm out of the road.
I thought i'd just take the trailing arm off so went and bought a 17mm inhex socket got the bolt undone but it won't withdraw out of the housing. Any ideas ?
Don't know the setup in there so I don't want to get brutal yet.
Anyone got anything to add.
