Never seen a sequence specified, but I would treat it like an intake manifold --work from the center mounts outward, and alternate sides.

Doesn't matter, you are going to be loosening them selectively anyway to insert shims anyway. The shimming process on the body can take many different shim combinations before you get the doors gaps right.
