Cutting strut rod bushings for correct geometry?

Yes, it looks like the thicker bushings are keeping the LCA from seating all the way in. Yes I installed strut rods first. No $ for shops right now. I'm a DIY guy learing from experanced guys like the ones above. My next plan is to remove everything. Replace the Energy Suspension Polies with Moog K7040 and leave the front bushiings to be tighten at alignment time.

Sounds good. I just purchased these Strut Rods from Reilly Motorsports last week along with his Upper Control Arms. Doing a Coil over Conversion.

His Strut Rods are 100.00 Cheaper than the Hotchkis stuff.
