I have been changing the the rubber bush's on the eye bolt on the front right suspension with my son and had moved the rear lower rear arm back and i did not mark it as it was still on the edge of the torsion bar. I went to answer a phone call and when I back i found that some how he had remove the lower arm from the torsion bar with out marking the position that it had been on.
I hope that some one can tell me how can I return the lower arm to the right position on the torsion bar so that the height will correct

Thanks for any help given.

have you got the other side in pieces too?

if so, you can measure the height of the hole at the end of the arm (from the ground, or the from a point on the body) and check that it's the same both sides.

Just gauge it - and lower the car for a test before you do up all the bolts. If it's not right, move it round a spine and test again.
