Ball joint on first.
Spacer in the bottom of the tube (not all cartridge/strut combos need it)
install cartridge
the Gland nut must clamp the top shoulder of the cartridge against the bottom of the housing, it MUST NOT bottom on its threads. If it's threaded tight, and the cartridge can move at all, you needed the spacer.
