i used a pair of small vise grips to hold the bolt ,to put it back in.i think the fishing line idea was good too .

Trailing arms dropped off at VolunteerVette.
I decided to forgo just swapping the spindles onto the off-set ta's. They'll be back next week overhauled with new parking brake package, can't wait.
In the meantime I'm re-installing removed components and new.

Long nose needle nose works well to reinstall the trailing arm bolt. I'm in the process
of reassembling my rear drive train as time allows.

Looking good. I like those strut rods. Those look pretty beefy and love the spherical ends. Should work nicely.
Just went back and saw you got new a new brake set up too. Very nice!! Maybe we can catch up sometime this summer.

TA's good for 60K miles.
TA's rebuilt with new bearings, brakes and other hardware by VolunteerVette with VanSteel off-set arms.
