You fvcked up your tie rod end you will need a new one. You need a Pitman tie rod puller or you pull the nut to the bottom and bang on the nut not the screw. It would be nice if you spoke English because I am having a hard time understanding what you need.

just don't tighten unless you can get all your bolts in place.

The 2 strut bolts? just wiggle by grabing the disc brake then push it up. The bolts will slide in, try cleaning the dirt off the kunckle.

ok i just left everything off right now because the tie rod nut is stripe so i need to replace that from the dealer tomorrow. And the reason why i am taking off the suspension is because when ever i turn and hit a pop hole i hear a big poping sound even when i turn the wheel. And i just read many thread about the poping sound i am going to try to solve the problem tomorrow
thanks

To put the stock back in, you will need to lower the control arm first. Give it a good push down with your leg. Then install one or two top bolts, but not tight so you have some 'wiggle room.' The tie rod bolt is a 24mm. You have to undo it then screw the tie rod end off. It might be kind of hard to do without being attatched to the strut. So you might want to install the OEM strut, undo the bolt then take off the tie rod end.
