Got it all put together,
Changed oil and was running
Got to put the front sway bar on and torque the nuts
Put the dash back together and counsel

The pressing in of the suspension bushings is a bit different for the uppers and lowers. For the lowers, the bushings are pressed into the A-arm until the outer bushing flange is in contact with the A-arm surface. For the uppers, the bushings are assembled on the A-arms, the pivot bolt is inserted and tightened, and the whole assebly is drawn tight. The upper A-arm bushings have raised ridges around the circumference of the outer sleeve that prevent the bushings from being pressed in to deep.

Good grief, passenger wheel is not straight forward as the driver side lol
I must of not got the tie rod end in the tight place ,had to laugh at that
Now the driver side wheel leans in,bottom in,
Need shims to get it somewhat close then I will take it in for alignment
