Thanks John ( and Ed)  Not enough people. Holiday weekend, and half the club in FL and all #@rofl3

Marc and I will resort to machinery...  Was just looking for an excuse to go to Harbor Freight anyway.

If we're unsuccessful, we'll repost request. If not we'll post photos

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.

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...

  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.





3 on the back 2 on the front with 2 additional people to hand off the front to when we get to the fenders should do it
