LCA sits on bump stops?

Thanks for the reply.

That is my issue, I thought I my have screwed up installing the torsion bar the first time round so I pit her back on stands and did just like your post.

Same issue, LCA wont move away off bumbstop.

LCA bushing is polly.

I never thought to check ride height before teardown, but the car dose not appear to be sitting 2 1/4 lower in the front. I think this may have been a pre existing issue to front end tear down?

Driver side has not been torn appart yet. its bumb stop is missing on the LCA but it looks very much like the side I jist "repaired"....

Thanks again for your time and help.
