Re: Body On/ Body Off

Honestly though, I think it would be nearly impossible to remove the rivets holding the trailing arm xmember into place from under the truck. Just thinking about it makes me want to puke.

You can pull the front doghouse off in one shot (hood, fenders, grille, core support...then you could gut the interior, disconnect fuel lines, wiring, parking brake cable, steering, etc....and get a few big buddys over to help you pick it off the frame. That is a lot of work, but probably worth it IMO when doing that kind of work on the chassis.
