[quadsrus1]

You loosen the carrier bolts and back the adjuster bolts all the way out. The lower carrier bolt slides in a slot on the swing arm.

Does it have to be jacked up? I tried that and its not working.

no, but it will probably make life easier. you grab the carrier on top and bottom and push or pull the bottom to where you need it. pretty simple man.

if you have the carrier bolts loose and the adjusters all the way out it should move freely. i had the same thing happen yesterday though. take a breaker bar or something and put on the bottom carrier bar. tap it lightly and it should free it up. probably just frozen or corroded in place. use a little elbow grease.
