Installed front struts yesterday.. have questions pics

CottonBurnerz · 05-08-2004, 12:24 PM

The question is.. do I tighten the top strut bolt before or after I attach the A-arm back to it? Does it really matter?

I'll probably do the rear shocks tomorrow.. but do I tighten the shock bolts before or after I attach the lower controm arm?

Anyhow, I'm really sore today.. here are some pics

arrived while I'm changing struts

thought I keep you guys an update.

The last part that havn't arrived yet are the steeda sport springs. I will get them on Tuesday and finish everything that day.

any tips before I do rear shocks would be nice.
