Hey Brian, Please shoot me a PM.  I'm struggling with my Sway-a-way spring plates. I'm trying to use the stock bushings and the stock end plates. Could use a few pointers.  If I had stuck with the stock spring plates, I'd be done by now.

 

You have IRS, right?

The trick for me (swing axle) is: using four longer bolts to attach the spring plate cover. The adjustable spring plate uses different bushings that make it easier to get everything together. The OEM ones are better, but make it a challenge to squeeze everything in place. The longer bolts help with the squeezing together part once everything is lined up. I also have the VW tool that allows you to pull the spring plate up after the starting degree is set.

Hope that helps!
