I need someone like that for mine.
I'd like to know as well. I'll tell you what I used... a 4x4 and a U-bolt. Needless to say, I was pretty nervous.

I made it. It's not that hard if you can weld at all, and have access to some steel. It works really slick, it turns cab removal & install into a one man job ! It's also adjustable and should work on almost any cab !

Re: Project; Divorce Therapy ( 72 SWB 4x4 )

Well it's raining here so I told the blaster to hold off until next week, the body shop won't be ready for about a week anyway.

I've placed several orders for parts, a couple of big ones:
  • 2 Bed sides
  • Cowl induction hood

  • Complete cab seal kit + every pad, grommet, window felts you name it !
    Complete upper & lower body trim set with tailgate moldings too.

Here's a link to the Body Shop I'm using: http://www.colonialautobody.net/
The owner is my neighbor, he makes his money on collision repairs but takes on a few projects from time to time. He won't have his guys work on it, he will personally do my truck.



I'll post pics when stuff arrives.
