So i am on the final leg of my front end rebuild. Is there a sequence to install. Currently the front drop link sway bars are attached to the control arms. The following needs to be install.

1. Torsion bar end caps
2. Attach strut to the ball joint with the wedge bolt
3. Attach the top 3 hex bolts on the strut

I know its simple but i woud hate to do it 2x and have to knock out that wedge bolt or something

Thanks in advance.

Oh if you know any good threads to install/adjust the torsion bars it would appreciated. Sorry search is not my friend

Thanks guys for all you support and advice. So basically I pushed the a-arms in the droop position as far as the attached strut would allow and placed the adjustment cap end on with the minimum adjustment thread showing at the 2 o'clock position for the right side and 10 o'clock position for the left. Well I plan on getting an alignment afterwards so hopefully they can level my front end.

Now the front thru body sway bar needs fine tuning to get them installed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Thanks all !!!
