ALIGNMENT SPECS. HEEEELLLLLPPPP!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Im now ready to install my front suspension! My question is, after I bolt on my uppers and lowers w/ spindles, Do I then bolt the tires on and sit the car down on the ground and add weight before I bolt down my strut rods/ bushings and front sway bar? I think I read something a day or to ago about someone doing this. Dont you bolt everything together and try to set your front suspension as close to spec as possible before you let the car down? Im in the dark about this and any advice would be greatly appreciated. Id hate to go a test drive and something is really screwed up and have to take some things back apart!
Thanks and God Bless!
Larry of Mason Ohio.

You shouldn't have any problems with bolting this all up while it's in the air with the exception of the sway bar. You can snap the end link bolt if you tighten it up to much before setting it down. Here's a good alignment spec sheet if you guys are interested...
