Support the chassis from the rear cross member, so the springs hang down.
Remove the spring bolts completely.
Loosen the U bolts.
Use a Stilson to twist the spring eye into position and have a jack under the centre of the axle so you can raise it slightly to align the hole.
Take note of the advice above concerning the need for the torque tube to be above the cross member and to make a tapered end on the spring pin.
Once the pins are through, tap the springs into position and replace the bolts, then fit the taper pins and finally, once everything is in place, tighten each item.
If all of this still fails, call me on 01419428037.
