Talking with my local mechanic one day about some work I had them do, I found out when they tighten the CAs, they "just hit it with the gun" when it is up on the lift ... which is the wrong way to do it. They assured me it is fine, they "always do it that way." So I took it home, loosened all the CAs, bounced the suspension a couple times, and re-torqued.
