Question 66 GTO body bushing replacement

One of my winter projects is replacing the 51 year old body mounts. Over the last couple of months all 14 mount bolts have been soaked, removed and anti-seized back in. In preparation to do this, I know I need to remove bumpers, disconnect the rag joint, bolts on inner fenders to frame and a couple of harnesses for my cutouts. Planning on floor jacking one side at a time. The Fisher body manual has little or no info on this. For those who have been down this road, any other hidden obstacles/surprises to disconnect or remove?

Going back with rubber mounts already secured from our sponsor.

On my 66 GTO, I did one side at a time. Jacked the body up in sections, slid the rubber bushes in at each location & installed the bolts.
