Are the ball joints fully, properly seated?

Dumb question but how do you know they are fully, properly seated? Other than putting them in the knuckle as straight as possible, don’t they kind of self-seat when you torque them down?

That usually works. Do you have a 30mm socket to adjust the torsion bar yourself?

Yep. I just replaced all four control arms which meant loosening the torsion bars.
