I used the big block of wood just on the back floor brace first then I did the front floor brace. The balance point of the body is in front of the back tires up further from were I have the 4 X 4.

Also with the 4 X 4 just in front of the rear wheel well, I'm wondering how much balance there was - a little weight on the front 4 X 4 or adequate as to keep the body from tipping off the back? Krister Meister Bloomingdale, IL '66 SS #'s matching I Removed the body from the frame on the 1968 chevelle I am doing right now. There was questions on how to do it before so I took some step by step pictures. The only tools used are heavy duty jack stands, 4x4 posts, some other wood, 3 ton floor jack and taking your time doing it.When done I also tie the 4x4 together. I only have a double garage. If wanting to see the pictures they are on the 1968 chevelle restoration under frame. Dave Ingersoll,Ontario My web site: http://members.tripod.com/benj30/
