Rear shackles are upside down

Nice build

You are correct sir. I knew that. I don’t know how we let that slip. Let’s please keep that between the two of us.

Great info! Thanks for heads up on using 40/55 mounts.

I know nothing about the mounts in the link above. It was just something I found in my searches a couple years ago. This is the only complete set of 45 body mounts (I’m aware of ) that’s still available other than your 40/55 set. Hopefully the info you’ve posted will help someone else in the future

Alright in case anyone was wondering…we used a combination of a front pair of FJ40 body mounts and a pair of round FJ55 body mounts in the rear. There’s only 4 total.

Yeah I emailed that guy about that kit. He never responded.

Assembly continues. Here’s the driver’s seat mounted. Henry’s head through the back glass if we get in an accident. I’m hoping his mother won’t notice because low back buckets are so cool.

Had to do some impromptu body work with a rubber mallet and carpet. The body guy didn’t notice it was crunched up a little bit

You can see the before and after on the reveal between the fender and apron. Also compared to the driver’s side.
