So I will be in the process of rebuilding my front Passenger suspension. Already got a new strut, both upper and lower control arms, knuckle and bearing. My question is:

Is there a right way of assembling the knuckle and bearing? Can I install the bearing onto the knuckle while it’s on a work bench (might be tough to torque it to spec though) OR attach the knuckle first on to the strut and arms and then install the bearing? Maybe I’m just overthinking this?

Also, no need for any special anti seize or whatever when the bearing is installed onto the knuckle, except on the bolts, right?

Thanks for any help. I’m investing to buy a plugin impact gun to help me w this job. Hopefully it’ll be a big help.
