I'm working on a 71 Duster, rebuilt K frame bolted up. It has bare spindles (BB disc), A arms aren't bolted up and the torsion bars aren't in. I don't have shocks yet and I'm wondering if I can install them last $$. I think it is but wanted to be sure that it's okay to have the car on the ground without shocks installed (no motor). I'm trying to figure out the best order of assembly. Any advice on order or gotchas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
Do not tighten stuff up until you have the engine in and full weight on the suspension.
You need a FSM, do a search cause there are links to free copies available...
