The only other tip is to remind you to have the wheels on the ground/vehicle sitting at ride height to tighten the bolts through the bushings. This is necessary to have the rubber at a relaxed state while driving. If you tighten them while on jack stands the rubber will twist when you put her back on her feet, leading to overly premature failure.
Good luck!

That is good info Weasel thanks. Yes I knew about having the car on the ground before tightening the bolts.
