body off chassis

[96terrano]

yeah, really need to split them entirely so i can rub down the body and chassis, as it's worse than i thought and i want to do it properly for piece of mind, itll be a proper restoration because the truck is way to sentimental to scrap.....was my 15th birthday present to myself so am really determined to fix him

whats needing to be done to remove the body? i thought, breaks, wiring, mounts, steering......anything else? this is to take the body of entirely

i seem to remember rick and swifty taking a body off the chassis ..... I think he posted a pic ..... but damned if I can find it

cool, i have now been told i couldn't do it as ant real movement will twist the body

Jack it up on blocks and roll the chassis out from under it.
