great project and nice work, I think you did a great job so far but....I see one issue that I think could be better, I know its been said before but I think the upper a frame brackets are not safe, its not ideal to but weld a plate like that and put that type of stress on it, I would take some plate and make some triangles and run them on the inside of the frame on each side of the plate you have there...please don't be offended by this ..I just see a potential issue

At this time I do not see a need to put these gussets in as it is not going any where and we are not near the time to drive it yet so we have time to include them in the bracketry.

Unfortunately we do not but we did use the measurements from the original frame from the Factory Assembly Manual. Personally i do not know of any plaes that would have a blueprint computer document.
