Did I install my A Arms correctly (suspension rebuild)

Well I got one side of my project done today as well as the bump steer hardware. So far it's all goine pretty well:
1. New turbo tie rods
2. New ball joints
3. New Elephant Racing bushings
4. New sway bar bushings
5. Bump steer kit

When removing the control arms, it is said to count the threads on the height adjusting screw-which I did. However, I think that's only half the equation as you need to orient the T-bars to the control arms as well. Am I correct?

To be safe, I measured from the bottom of the control arm to the ground as well as counting threads. When I got the LH side finished, I had the same dimension, so hopefully the height will be the same when she's back on her rubber.

Sounds to me like a good referrence point. You will be Ok until you get to the alignment shop.

Milt:

Thanks for the moral support. She'll get an alignment as well as new S-03's in the front.
