frame a rollin'...via wheel dolly's

I needed to get my frame in a rolling state, so I could move it around easily. So I attached some 16" tall 2x4's to my wheel dolly's with a 2" lag bolt and added a small piece of OSB as a shear panel to keep it from twisting. Worked great.

Re: frame a rollin'...via wheel dolly's

I had an idea really similar to that...Need to get the 4x4 into the garage and I don't think it will make it with the tires on.
I think I need stronger than 2x4's though, lol....

Re: frame a rollin'...via wheel dolly's

when you get the trailing arm please see what the angle is, as ECE says that it is not stock and is used to help low the truck. I would greatly appreciat this thanks.
