Front shocks

Hello folks thanks for taking the time to read my post. When you are replacing the front shock absorbers on a fuselage c-body which 13/16 nut do I remove of the ball joint the upper or lower .Certainly by removing the nut I can move the control arm to pull out the shock if it is the lower do I have to do anything to the torsion bars my car is a 71 New Yorker. .thanks for any insight..all the best
