im not sure. i think it was like that when i got the car from a salvage yard.

here is waht im thinking: get a 1/4 thick peice of steel with 2 holes in it.
put it on the rearward part, and put 2 bolts through the holes and have them connect to nuts that are inside the subframe. then just tighten it into place...

what do you think?

I think you're getting a bit too complicated. That peice doesn't have to be perfectly straight, I'd just take a prybar or similar and a BFH and start banging away.

Yeah, that would probably work, but it just seems alot easier to bang it out w/ a hammer.
