Default installing and adjusting arms

alright its been a while since ivee fooled with the jeeps suspension so pls forgive me.

alright this weekend im pullin my RE adjustable lowers to service them, and i am also installing my new bds adjustable uppers.

what would be the easiest way to put the arms back in so the axle will line up?

should i have all the control arms out and start with putting the uppers back in first?

or should i start with putting the lowers back in first?

by the way i have access to a shop where i will be doing the work.

length of control arms depends on lift, check out this page and see if it helps

he didn't ask about length, lol.

I would think it's easier to hook the bottoms up first.
