LOL...yes it did. My only concern really is getting the spring back up and getting the bolt through it. Otherwise, removing the knuckle is just a few bolts as you said.

Floor jack and a hockey puck. Just lift it enough to take the tension off the spring bolt.
I messed up! I dropped the nut to one of the lower dog bones through the hole in the chassis. It's inside the frame and I have no idea how to get it out. See pics.
Help!
The obvious question: Why didn't you remove the bracket to install the dog bones?
Answer: I didn't realize until after I dropped the nut that I could remove the whole bracket. I thought it was welded in place.

Before I start I should probably say that this is my first post on this site and really any forums ever so sorry if i do something wrong
I have been having issues with my 93 c4 (lt1), It will at random shake really bad and loose power as well as running really rough, and at idle it sounds and feels like its about to stall. This problem only happens randomly while driving, it will suddenly start happening and after awhile just go back to normal like nothing ever happened. It will do it randomly at different temps and rpms it just seems random. The best lead I have on it is that it might be the optispark but i’m not sure. I wanted to see other people’s opinions before i go pay for a new opti. Ill try to put a video in, it doesn’t really show the shaking that well but it shows the rpms
Best advice I can give you... Copy your post and paste it into your own original thread. That way it will get more attention, otherwise it will remain buried in my thread.

1- Trailing arms (dog bones) at chassis/rear at knuckle (62/65 I believe)
2- Camber arm? ...where it attaches to the bottom of the knuckle
3- The big nut (30mm) at the center of the spindle: Is it 160 or 200 lbs/ft?
I saw a spec sheet posted by WVZR1, but things are called differently, so I want to make sure.

If you have the FSM, it's all there. In a '96 FSM it's likely found at 3D-16 and everything is mentioned in the preceding pages in illustrations probably.
Almost there! I had to buy a new torque wrench, as my old one has a max setting of 150lbs. All that's left is the spindle bolt (164 or 200lbs), tighten down the caliper brackets, and put the wheels back on. About an hours worth.
I bought new bushings for the sway bar. I'm taking the links to work so I can use the vise. I have no idea how I'm going to insert the bushing into the sway bar. Any ideas or tips?
