Centred up the knuckles today and set trunion preload. Got the short axle in maybe a half day from getting the front end back on the chassis, progress !

Borrowed it from a local 4WD place. You put $300 on your CC and they refund it when you return the tool. I took them 6 Coronas for their trouble, as you do!

Yep... 6 Coronas to borrow it for a week is a better deal!
nice work mate, I'm a bit slow catching up on your thread did you swap the rear anti-inversion shackles around the right way so they work back on page 2 of the thread

yeah the tabs should be facing toward the inside so the springs cant invert, the tab should be coming in contact with the bottom of the frame/chassis to stop the shackle from inverting
the shackle should be oriented like this in the photo

Front diff back in, disc rotors are next. 75 components all work with the 60 box.

Coming together nicely, keep up the good work and keep those pic rolling in!....Its making for a good tutorial on V8-disc brake-40 Series.
Cheers mate, it's getting there. Still thinking about ordering a flat pitman arm as I'm not convinced on spring clearance. Off to buy new rotors this week
Is the clearance issue caused by using the 60 series power steering box or something else?

Yep, sometimes they hit, sometimes they don't. For the sake of 70 bucks I might just get one
