Few Tips for you,
a) Pre soak bolts with WD40 (or similar)
b) Be careful with gearbox X-member bolts as when we did it we striped the heads of the same bolt on both cars (may have been unlucky.
c) if you don't have one already, get a 17mm long shank 1/2 inch socket drive for the cross member bolts and 1/2 inch breaker bar + extension. these need alot of force to losen the nuts.
d) be careful with disconnecting the brake lines stripping these sucks.
Other than that take reference photos of how the 1J is connected in regards to piping, vacuum hoses etc. So far our swap has been pretty painless except for trying to find the right exhaust gasket for the dump pipe. and some minor wiring issues.
Go my friend.... the 1J is calling...
