The front connection was a problem for me too till I realized it really wasn't installed correctly from the dealer. Had to lenghthen the yokes. The manual doesn't give good instructions. and on page 18 the correct distance of "B" for the rear yoke and clevis is not 5.5 to 6.3". Mine will not even extend that far. Once "daveinmo" reminded me to yes, loosen the depth adjustment screw knob everything fit easily in place and was easy to level. Have to get a couple of those depth gauges.
