D,
All good suggestions. Sorry I can't add to them, I had very few problems getting it back together (on both sides, CV on left, ball joint R&R on right). My only problems were torquing both the ball joint nut (whatever, I just tightened it) and the horizontal nut on I think the control arm (whatever, I just used blue and tightened it) because I don't have a shorty torque wrench and the long one I had has too much play in it before it engages.
Again, on the low torque swaybar nut, because there's a soft rubber bush there it was actually difficult to get it even to torque to, what is it, like 7 ft/lbs? And I think that's a lock nut (with the plastic insert).
Good to hear everything else worked out.
Mike
