Maybe you already have this in the app?
This is a great and important question.

1) I make sure the chassis is flat on a setup board without any tires on it. if not, loosen screws give the chassis a couple of twists and the put back on the board...tighten the screws. the order you tighten the screws is important. Start with the screws holding the bulk heads to the chassis first then do the upper deck, then do the screws holding the top portion of the bulk heads to the bottom portion of the bulk heads...then do the screws holding the shock tower to the upper portion of the bulk heads.

2) then ride height
3) then droop.
4) then make sure the spring preload is balacned left and right.
5) the recheck droop and ride hight to make sure nothing changed.
6) camber
