    >>strut
    I'm referring to the upper control arm cross shaft. Since that bar fits into the bushing in notches 'like a spline' I thought it could be at an incorrect angle when pressed in.

    I did tignten the front lowers before dropping to the ground.
    I will loosen them again after dealing with the rear springs.

    I converted from mono to multi.
    The rear springs are brand new (more like NOS) from Scott's Chevy Parts. I went for low price ($129/pair). That was bad decision on my part.

    Worked on the rear last - so I'm gonna fix that first.
    It sat OK untill I did the leaf springs.

    I posted a couple pictures.
    Thanks for the reply - Bert
