lifting the tub with top on

Howdy guys,
I have a Jimmy that has never had the top off and I am trying to do more of a "preservation" rather than a restoration, repairing and repainting only areas that need it. Body mounts are bad, the old ones unbolted fine so now I need to know where is a good place to lift the front of the tub with the roof and doors on? Glass is still in it too. The mount bolts are nice enuff that I dont have to grind the welds and replace them. I did take off the tailgate to get my cherry picker to lift the rear of the tub from seat mount holes. I have a gantry crane to lift the front.
Yah, I know that everyone has these trucks to run around topless, but since this one never has I thought I'd try to leave it that way for the heck of it to keep its story a little different.

Any help is appreciated!---DAC
