Pull from the front of the fire wall trans tunnel to the lower controll arm mounting and square it up then put your driver in the car loaded on the suspension and add a 1/2 to full turn of pre load to pass side. Point pinion nut to trans.... should get you close and have the rear square in chassis

I always make the rear lowers the same length. These set the wheelbase. Then you can set the uppers the same and if you turn the uppers equal amount of turns in opposite directions you can slide the rear in the chassis left to right. Once it's centered load it to full race weight and set preload as mentioned above...
