do i put in the axles first and then attach my hub/rotor assembly, or do i mount my hub to the lower balljoint and then add the axle into the hub splines and then the front diff?

whats easiest?
 
Insert the axle first. Support the axle so it doesn’t damage your new seals.

The car care nut just did this job. He did struggle some. If you put a jack under the hub, you can lift the hub assembly to get the upper control arm connected.

 
Jack method works fine. Can also just use a pry bar over top of UCA with pry bar tip under top of shock mount. Leverage the uca down onto top of spindle.

Pry bar has potential for more excitement lol
