Tub Removal Advice
I saw this post http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=176647
I wanted to know if any one had any more advice - I pulled my front clip this weekend - and am ready to start pulling the tub off the frame - I'm going to mimic 71restorod's setup he did. My tub is in excellent shape - wanted to know everybody's opinion doing it with the top & interior in it? Thanks, Ben

Re: Tub Removal Advice
my vette was different but i made myself a body harness and used a cherry picker. but with your lift that prolly wont work to well.
I also built a railing system with a chain hoist, 4x4s and angle iron, it is a pretty simple system and i still have most of it if you want to borrow it.
