Get it close to where I need it and turn the bolt so the arm is in a similar spot as when I removed it.

Illinois? It gets cold up there. I'll bet that's a nicer wheel cover up there in the winter than it would be down here in the summer.
With the brake hose bracket installed the rivets don’t sit level on the arm. I was going to put washers under the remaining studs to even it out. Is this a bad idea?

Man I feel like they really dropped the ball on this one. The washers probably won’t hurt anything. Just make sure you still have a couple threads hanging out the bottom of the nut when they’re torqued down.
I’ve had my brackets, hose clamped to my control arms since installation.

The threads just barely make it through the nut. The FSM says install the bolts from the bottom up. So I’m doing that. Good enough for GM, good enough for me. I doubt they’ll ever back out. I’ve got nylon lock nuts that I will use.
Maybe that’s why the brake line bracket doesn’t fit underneath them
On critical systems like suspension, nylocs are single use, according to the engineers that develop them.

It can’t come out easily. I got some fresh hardware so I can install it close to OEM.
