'Attachments :Heres some pics 1- my special tool to load the arms use one about 12" long run it down untill you can get the bolts in and evened out get all 4 bolts in run them down evenly back and forth between them .
2- if you look close you will see were I had to trim about 1/4 " off the tube . The tube sits on a pin over the axle so it can't move back and forth . The new one ran a little long and would not clear that angle bracket.
Those are the most important things on the install. Other than the tube weight of about 90 -100 # nothing but big bolts to torque. I don't remember what I torqued them to. But I did recheck them .
The picture of the shackle is one I replaced. I ordered a set because alighnment guy thought they might have been getting bad. Not the case but I put them on while I had it apart.
It really is a simple procedure just heavy.I think I would rather do another one than the job I have to do now. I broke the pivot bolt off on water pump bracket that will be a lot worse to do I think.I can try to answer any specific ? I hope the pictures are big enough I couldn't get them to post at a larger sizeBob 96 Serengeti'

'Bob, Hey, I received and was able to open/see all four pictures you have in what I’m assuming was your first and original post of them yesterday 25Aug19. Since it appears you have replied an additional three times still adding pictures I’m wondering Is the doubt they didn’t attach at your end, or is someone telling you they are not seeing them?R/Willie, Connie is ‘95 Continental, 8.3L, Ally 6spd
