QA1 Dynamic strut rod. OOPS

In my 1973 scamp that I am getting ready to put on the road, I missed a step. I have the QA1 K-frame and I installed the dynamic strut rods a while back. Now I have the entire front end assembled and ride height set. While getting ready to do the alignment, I realized that I did not adjust the lengths of the QA1 dynamic strut rods. Do I have to remove the shocks, spindles and torsion bars to check for binding?? Or is there any other way to adjust the lengths? Doh.....
FWIW, I "thought" that this would be adjusted during an alignment so I was not concerned about it at the time.

Edit for completeness. The upper control arms, spindles, calipers etc. are brand new from Doctordiff.
