Sequence help!

[Belgium R/T -68]

What goes first and what should be tighten full before car is on wheel? I have my lower controlarm adjusterbolts half way tightend, is that OK?
Don't want to take apart it again once it's finnished. When is t-bar going in? Lots of questions, I know.

Mike,
Sorry I forgot to attache the pic about my problem, it's moore the tightening sequence I'm after and at what moment the T-bars
finally can go into the LCA. Also if anybody have a good "tip" on how to get the upper control arm back in place, with new bushings
it doesn't fit that easy anymoore.

Maybe first tighten the lower control arm to be able to tighten the strut? I know LCA has to be loose when car hits the ground.

What about the upper control arms to get them easier in place, warm the rubber up a little bit?

No suspensionguys around.

build up the suspension ..spindle , upper  control arm  lower , strut rod  , then slide the torsion bar in .   getting a FSM  (factory service manual) would be a great help on putting stuff back togeather .  only torque the nuts & bolts up to the correct torque ....when the car is on the floor ..with every thing on the car .ie  engine / transmission / interior etc

Thanks!

oh one more thing ,  make sure the torsion bar adjuster bolt is  backed out , , before you slide the bar in !

I have set the adjusterbolt half way into the nutblock, is that what you mean?

Yes, back the torsion bar adjuster so that it's just barely threaded into the nutblock....then install the torsion bars.

And put the "torsionbarsleeve" on the LCA towards/on the adjusterbolt? I mean no space between bolt and the piece moving the T-bar.
