OK, a buddy of mine has been spending every evening helping make some progress, and has been a big help!!! mean while our "better halves" are keeping current on thier favorite TV episodes ! I think they are beginning to realize that entertaining an "AISIN MISTRESS" is a time consuming process.
As of now the motormounts are tack/welded in. Started to redrill all the holes to 5/8" in all the brackets I ordered from BALLISTIC since all the brackets come with 9/16" holes and all my Forged Joints have 5/8" holes this seemed "REDONKULOUS" to me that they dont offer 5/8" holes in thier brackets,when I questioned them about this, I was told that they know whats best !! so whatever
Rear truss is tacked in place, rear LCA axle brackets are tacked in place.These required trimming, I started with a 22.5* bracket and trimmed to get angle I needed, also had to trim tube radius because brackets were for a 3" tube and fj 60 housings are 3.25" ,axle coil spring pads tacked in place,these required the same tube radius trimming and some additional trimming on the pass.side since the spring pad location hits where the housing starts to climb for the third member and turns into a square mounting surface.
2.25 x .375 DOM rear LCA material was cut to length @ 25" , threaded tube inserts tacked in place, giving a starting length of 32"cntr hole to cntr hole, with joints screwed almost all the way in leaving 1/2" of thread showing .LCA's are set in place, I'm using 5/8 x 5" fine thread GRD 8 bolts with williams washers and locking nuts(standard nuts for mock-up).
Went to put upper control arm joints into thier brackets which are attached to the top of the rear truss and they did not even fit in the bracket ,I called BALLISTIC and was informed that they now have a new bracket that fits those joints and that the bracket I have now was a bad design.......really!!!? they told me they would get the new ones to me,but they dont know when they will ship out because the shipping dept is behind
I dont have that long to wait ,so I came up with a different Idea and am making my own UCA mounting bracket!!!
in those one track purist minds'. Get awn to the dovetail updates 
I guess if the Mods want to move it, then that would be fine ;p, udpdates are coming....
