Re: Getting ready to start a DIY backhalf job. Any tips?
Just be EXTRA cautious what you reference to and from/. The BEST floors are not pefectly level. I put in rebar every 10' for the guys to pour my shop floor, they finished it with one of those 'ride-on' whirllybird things, saw cut the expansion/contraction joints after the floor cured. and it's STILL got dips and valleys. Go to the hardware store and buy like 20' of clear, 1/2" flexible poly tubing and a couple of rubber plugs. Water in the tube WILL be level. A 3 or 4' level is really just minimally usefull when your trying to level a 18' chassis.
FYI,, taking the sawzall to the frame will be one of the hardest things you will do.
All I can say is measure 100 times, cut ONCE

I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
