Removing the body off the frame.

[behemoth]

I need to work on the frame and I was wondering about how to remove it.

I have a limited amount of space and do not want to remove the doors or the front clip.
I was thinking of raising the whole thing up and lowering the frame out from under it.

The issue is supporting the body, I understand the normal body supports work the best, but obviously they are not accessible.

So are the rockers another option or any other suggestions.

If you leave the doors on and latched it should help brace pretty well. You could throw a couple 4x4s under the rockers to support it.

I would remove the doors and tailgate. Saves allot of weight. If its rusty make sure you brace it. I used a engine hoist and then rolled out the frame from underneath.
