Tiny update: :) And yes it's held in place with it's own hardware, jackstands were just used to help me keep it level while I jacked it up with a floor jack.

And last one shows the homemade poly diff ear bushings in place. Basically goes subframe, large washer, poly bushing 1, diff ear, poly bushing 2 (stock metal insert is reused in the middle), then the stock concave washer cleaned up with a coat of silver. Thanks again K-dog :D

Suspension is on. New rotors are on. Calipers on and bolts are TIGHT (for those who were on the fall cruise haha). Tightened up everything!
My cam cores came in, so I'll be sending them off to get reground tomorrow. The 2 missing bolts for my lower control arm showed up so will install them tomorrow as well. Then basically just need install the driveshaft, bleed the brakes, install exhaust, attach rear wheels, and fire her up and take it for a test drive around the block :D
