Any words of wisdom before I start my front end rebuild?

I am just finishing up a complete rebuild on my ‘68 GTS suspension. I found a used crush sleeve from a 12 bolt Chevy works well for pressing in upper bushings. I have the special socket for upper ball joints. So no issues there.
The real pain in the butt was the outer sleeve on the LCA. I tried welding a washer in and pressing it that way, it did not work. In the end I ended up cutting the out.
