[Healeys] front suspension assembly order

I think people usually assemble the A-arms (wishbones) to the stub axle 
before fitting both to the chassis and shock arms. There is a specific 
procedure for setting the clearance between the A-arms and the end caps 
on the stub axle fulcrum (bottom of the king pin). Then, the springs go in.

Wheels go on last ;)
