Anyone have any other tips?

UPDATE: By some miracle of God I got one side to line up. Reassembly was easy. Emboldened, I figured lightning would not strike twice and that the other side would be easier. No such luck, as history repeats itself. Back at it again tomorrow. It's unbelievable...
This is by far the most time consuming part of the install. Unfortunately I have not found a trick to this process. One side went in fairly quickly (luck), and the other side took me about an hour on the one bolt. Using a floor jack certainly helps if you are doing this alone, but you will need to adjust things left to right, up and down. This makes things incredibly difficult.
