The Spare tire jack was what I was going to comment on. You are lucky that the vehicle didn't shift, and fall off the jack with you under it...

please! please! don't ever work under a car supported only by a jack, and that's a spare tire jack. invest in a jack and at least 2 jack stands. you don't want to get squished.

I ran into the same problem...could someone please explain what to do to prevent the arm from dropping or shifting i got everything back in but to get the bolt all the way through was a time consuming chalenge but none the less its back in place. I'm going to atempt again once I get the information I need. I have never really screwed around with any of this kinda stuff before so any help would be much appreciated.....

Yes the installation is not a big deal. Hold up you car (please use a stand jacks). Unscrew the low tie bolts then use the tire spare jack to align the lower suspension arm and screw the bolt with the bar. repeat the process with the other bolt. that is all.

Here is mine:
