That's it. Assuming you've removed the hood. Heavy Bastidge.

Re: check me please

Don't forget the ones outside next to the top by the door. You have to take the side cowl covers off.
Also. Don't know if you know but the later model control arms will bolt on to the early cross member. Only 63 and up and only C 10. Nothing wrong with swapping the whole cross member though. The later model ones had bigger sized U bolt for the lower control arms.
