I did an a4 b8 on mine

The first side was done in 5 minutes but on the second the top screw wouldn't go in.

However, I had taken my wheels off and put them on jack stands.

Another thing I hope I put the connecting rods in the right direction and didn't make a mistake

How do you know it's mounted correctly? Do you hear anything? The steering became harder.
