Thanks for the how-to!
The job is done! Problems that came up: Torquing the top nut. The tube wants to turn with the nut and it's hard to get purchase on that new, shiny tube to keep it from turning. I used vise-grips at the very top of the tube so that any scarring would not compromise the functioning of the shock.
Torquing the control arm nut. Due to the structure of the chassis, it is impossible to get a socket on the nut so I had to resort to a box end wrench and a cheater tube to approximate the required 120 Nm of torque!
