Hey

84vt500. Took the rear grab bar off and it doesn't want to go back in. It seems to have spread wider after I took it off. Any tips or do I need to take the rails off?

Thanks in advance

put one side on loosely. Use pry bar to pull other side out while you slide it in place and install bolts.

Thanks bro, I was trying to put it in from the top, read your post and for whatever reason realised I should be coming at it from the side. Had back on in about a minute.
