Just need to lift it in to the garage.
Anybody available tomorrow Monday Jan 2 9:30?
Don't know how much I can help but will stop over and see what I can do.
Sorry I can not be there to help,
You can try what I did to get a body off a trailer. Use a pair of 2x8. about 10 feet long.
Put them under each side and just slide the body off on to the ground.Might have to drive the trailer forward.
4x4will work also.
DWP
The pan is also on the trailer (under the body) so it has to be lifted....
Sorry big guy, cant make it.
We really need a bunch of folks to help there, bub, so nobody gets hurt. That was a struggle getting that ON the trailer with the four folks we had back then...
I can make it, if I can possible help?
Can you get the trailor in the garage?
Do you have a winch ... and a beam to attach it too?
Winch yes...Beam? no
I put it up on stands (by myself) in the front and bolted on the bumper brackets and bolted a 2x4 to it.
