Hey, I am almost done my project of a body swap but I was wondering if anyone had an easy technique for doing a body swap besides the obvious of getting a fork lift or anything like that. This is a kind of back yard project since my cash flow is a little slow right now, just trying to find an easier solution then simple muscle power as we all know how fun it could be lifting a body, rolling the rolled body off was the easy part (it was fun since I could smash it and it didnt really matter) however with the good body I need to be a little nicer. any advice or tips would be awesome, thanks!

get lots of people..thats what i did..i posted on all the forums and how a couple people froim each club/forum come down for a wrench day..made it super easy!

Air..good luck

about how heavy is a body???

which style body/ im pretty sure there all about the same or close. it took about 6-7 buddys to swap a 81 body on a 79 chasis. that was minus a tailgate, doors front clip, seats, and top. it was a freak'n heavy SOB to. swapping a bronco2 body minus seats and top was alot easier it only took 4 buddys. good luck

Thanks a bunch! now I know what im expecting when i go to change my chassis.
