Here are photos of my project so far. Will send the frame off for powder coating in a week or so. Just used hand tools for disassembly. Used a vise grip for grabbing the rounded bolt heads in the bed (no tack welding). Dropped the lower control arm by using a pickle fork on the ball joint (did not need a spring compressor that way). Used an inexpensive 2 foot long monkey wrench to remove the 1-3/8 and 1-5/8 control arm nuts (with a heavy hammer to wack it with). Now I need to decide if I want a posi or not. I plan on having the gas tank in the rear frame area. Just have to decide on where to put the fuel fill? Took many Advil during the whole process.
