Front suspension quiz

If you had the entire front suspension sitting on your garage floor....

As I happen to have.

what would be your order for reinstallation.

Items include:

a arms with new bushings

front struts

turbo tie rods

brake calipers and rotors

crossmember subframe

steering rack

wheels

new camber plate bushings

sway bar with new bushings

torsion bars

Promise to post detailed pictures of complete reinstall for those who follow behind me.

Thanks for your advise!

Chris, I am at same point. Just finished "set up stuff" i.e., ER bushings on the
a-arms, new races in the hubs, got the o-ring and spacer on the spindle. (I didn't pull the rack) But I was going put the turbo tie rods in first since I think I need to use the room down there before the crossbar goes in. Next, I was going put the sway bar into the A-arms and then into the crossbar. Put on on the jack and lift it up as "one piece". Then Struts, rotors et al....Like to hear Jeff's logic please.
