My appologies for an obvious redundant question. I searched the archives for the answer first, and was unable to located the information in a previous post, though I'm sure it is there in part at least.
The frame and drivetrain are built. The Body along with fire wall components are attached........ We are ready to lower the body onto the frame after a two year separation / revitilization.

I numbered the bags of shims as I removed them from the car two years ago, but today am uncertain which was #1, front or rear. It was a good idea but bad execution.
With that said, I am starting from scratch. I have all new attaching bolts, shims and original style rubber grommets.
The radiator support shims are welded in. I have an overhead chain fall, a body lift strap with 4 lift points and a support team of 6 good sized people to help in the uniting of body and frame.
I see that the dirrections state to tape the shims in place and lower the body. Now with the amount of shimming for each mount point in question, How Do I Proceed?
Could someone give me a good step by step for properly shimming the body?
