Curious front end issue. Ideas wanted

it's a bit easier to describe just going through the process step by step. It's still going to be trial and error if you've never done it before, just trying to figure out what the binding feels like vs what it feels when there's none takes some feel. And its different depending on what other parts you have

certainly appreciated, I don't remember any instructions with the struts but I think the proprietor was very approachable. Kinda wish they still did individual suspension parts. Im kinda partial to the old Mopar front end and spring config. Additionally, YouTube is full of folks doing front suspension videos but NONE of them I've been through so far described any nuances regarding adjustable struts or troubleshooting them.

since Im on the subject of nuance and the mention of individual parts.... I notice that the distance between the bushings for stock sway bars are different between after market sway bar end link manufacturers. Its hard to describe but many of them (and there seem to be a lot) advertise that they "fit" my model with stock equipment but the sleeve or the ferrules that hold the sway bar apart from the LCA are almost all different lengths. I can't say that guidance in the manual is very forthcoming either. My question is would a longer distance force more pre load into the sway bar and effect the freedom of movement (travel) of the LCA? Maybe longer would help compensate for or restore spring to a tired bar?
