Question how to remove a cab?

anyone have any ideas of pulling off the cab after the bolts are out and its broke loose, thought about a engine hoist/tow strap combo?

any thoughts?

Round up 3 more guys and lift it off. Front driver side is the heaviest.

Just pulled one of mine a few weeks ago. It is pretty heavy so be careful.

Remove the bed first (it is easier imho) then walk it off the back with 4 guys.
