Replace the bolt you removed to get the arm in place and flip over any remaining bolts that thread in from the
bottom up so all the bolt heads are on top.
Torque the two bolts that hold the arm to the frame to 135-149Nm (100-110 lbft).

Pivot endplay

Adjust the locknuts on the ends of the pivot shaft so that there is minimal endplay but so the pivots can still
rotate easily on the shaft. The control arm should just drop slowly under its own weight when you hold it out
straight and let it go.
The pivots may be a little stiff at first but once on the car they will loosen slightly.
