From Les below~


"I've heard of the problem using KW coilovers and the solution was to leave everything snug, driving around the block and then torquing to spec with weight on the wheels. If I'm not mistaken, the service manual recommends ...... let me check. Front suspension 2-41

Note: To avoid suspension preload, the vehicle
must be at normal ride height before tightening
lower control arm bolts to final specifications."
The wheels are dangling; however, I used transmission jacks to raise the A-arms to the stock position. Hmmm, maybe I'll put it back up on a wheels on the lift lift. Did this work for you?
