The order that I've found which makes re-assembly the easiest is:

Install the strut-to-LCA nut/bolt, but keep them loose.

Install the strut-to-body bolts, but keep them loose

Install the LCA-to-knuckle nut/bolt, with the help of a jack and prybar. This step is probably the most difficult.

Get all nuts/bolts tightened snugly.

Raise the LCA with the jack to "simulate" the car sitting on the ground, compressing the suspension. Then, torque everything to specifications.
