Lifting a Suburban body
It's finally time to put the body back on the frame. The plan is to suspend the body and roll the frame underneath. Then the body can be lowered into position. The back of the body will be suspended by the arms of the rear portion of the rotisserie. The front portion of the rotisserie will be removed and suspended by the piers of concrete block and the board between them on a good set of floor jacks. My concern of course is suspending it this way. Any thoughts on if this will result in damaging the body? The board is a 2x10 on the flat with three 2x4's making a E channel.
This is the only way I could think of doing this besides using chains or straps bolted to the front of the cab. Please any and all feedback is welcome Paul
