Default Installing Performance Lower Rear Control Arms

I'm still trying ot sort out the alignment on #455. I purchased the rear control arms like this thread states Wheel Alignment
(except I went with steel http://store.nexternal.com/shared/St...t=products.asp ... aluminum parts in the suspension just doesn't seem right to me)
I thought this would be simple, take two bolts out swap part put two bolts in... not the case. I was able to get the first bolt out of the hub (and only have 2 bloody knuckles to show for it, dang thing was getting hung up on the brake rotor dust "tin"). I moved to the next bolt and was able to get the nut off and pushed the bolt back, but it backs into the rear diff before the threads even show. So my problem is, how do I get the bolt out of the hole on the frame side? I am assuming I need to lower the rear center suspension assembly that attaches to the frame. What is the best way to do this? I'm sure I can figure it out but is would be nice to hear the correct way rather then figureing it out the hard way.
