Bee front end build sequence

Bee front end build sequence - 04/11/09 02:08 AM

Hello Forum,
I can remember massive posts on this but I didn't see what I was looking for in Tech. In a nutshell, can someone list in order what to assemble with all new bushings in my front end? The K-Frame is in place (or could be removed if needed)
Thanks folks!

Mike,

There hasn't been much activity re: your question so I'll post an answer from a previous post that I saved.

Here's a copy of what "screamindriver" posted.

Hello.. ...You've pretty much go it...K frame, lower control arm and strut rod, spindle and upper control arm, torsion bars, steering box, idler, drag link and related components, then the spindle/brake components...All bushed suspension components get torqued at ride height not during initial assembly.. ..The front sway bar is "frowning"... ....And my tip for the assembly is to make sure you leave the upper control arm rebound bumper off the car so both control arms can swing low enough to make the torsion bar install an easy job....




I believe this was relative to either a '68 or '69 "B" body, so that's why the reference to the sway bar.

Hope this helps.

Good luck
Frank
