Re: Tree fell on my truck

I was able to pull the cab off my 67 C-10 with my engine hoist and a pair of cargo straps wrapped around the roof going through the door jambs. Just put a mountain of weight on the back of the engine hoist to keep it from tipping over.

Lift it up off the frame then roll the chassis out from under it and set it down.

All the work you will be doing you probably want to build a cab dolly so you can roll it around easily.
