Well I have no shop, or help. So it just seemed to be the easiest way...:nopityA:
 
whatever works man I wish you had been around when I did mine. I let almost all the air outta the tires used a cherry picker on the front to get it up, a set of saw horses and a 2X4X12 let it down on that went to the back with the cherry picker hooked my four wheeler on the front and pulled the frame out. Deffinatly sucks when you have no help and limited resources.
 
Nice! So it didnt bend the roof lifting it like that? I was thinking of lifting my ex-cab body off kinda like that.

Na, I just put the strap back as far as I could so that its in a strong spot, near the "B" piller. It's worked twice now.
 
Now THAT is the way to swap bodies. Bitchin pics!
 
"our crane? you work for a company with a crane or own one you keep in your backyard? assuming it's work, what do you do?

Yea, I had some cash to blow so I bought a 20 ton crane.

I work for Case Wireline, we are an Oil Field business. I get to play with Primacord and Shape Charges EVERYDAY.......:woot:
