Default Rebound straps

have solved the rivet problem by using aluminum sex bolts. Cannot get the axle high enough to connect the other end of the rebounds strap. Anyone have any suggestions

if teh car is all together, you should be able to attach teh straps by jacking the axle,,, if its just a frame, you have to compress teh spring with clamps or chain and a long piece of all thread...

What's a "sex bolt"? Is that when the woman runs away?
