Outrigger Installation/Set up

[kirk a]

My Express has the Lee Sr Outriggers. Last year, it was a pain in the neck to install them, and I am hoping there is an easier way. Currently, the parts are in two pieces for each side. The outrigger itself, and the base unit with the two angled tubes. Last year, we connected the main tube of the base, and the tube going to the top (with the joint). Left the rearward support off, then laid down the base to add the outrigger. Finally, raised the outrigger and base, and struggled to get the last bolt in place.

Is this the best order of operations, or is there an easier way I'm not seeing?
