This is excellent advise. It can save the nuts on the body from damage.

Yep, its sounds like you got it.

Yes, sir.

If the A arms & steering box is off, place the floor jack to the rear of the main crossmember, the rear tails of the sub will want to drag on the floor as you pull it out but you can push down on the front frame horns and pretty much balance it. Support on jack stands each rocker panel near the pinch weld. I put a 2X4 on the jack stands to give it some grip.

Thanks, David. I appreciate the input.

Couple floor jacks, an engine hoist, and some snowmobile dollies and you're all set. :thumbsup:
