Thanks for the response Brad! How ya doing? Everything good?

I understand I'm not supposed to use the mounting bolts to draw up the rear suspension.....but I just question that my using the jack to draw up the rear suspension first and then thread the upper shock mount bolts is a good enough approach or should I be measuring ride heights (for lack of a better expression ) with the car on the floor prior to putting it up on stands...I would have figured that if I had to measure something to determine the "proper trim height" that the FSM would give a measurement to reference.

I suspect I'm over thinking this....but I'd rather see what the collective brain trust has to say before I do this job.

Thanks
Tom
