It's even worse in your case, since it was up front, and will be directly felt through the steering wheel. Where as some platforms, when done on the rear, don't really effect NVH as much as the front will do.

Oh and hawaii roads are no worse, than the rest of the US mainland. :P
Yep, I actually did the front only first since it took me so long and then I swapped the rear about a week later. It was actually still rough in the rear with the black series sway bar bushings...I just hate the roads around my neighborhood...all torn up and filled in so it's crazy rough.

I updated the original post with pictures showing the direction to insert the ratchet from...maybe a little confusing to orient yourself though.
