I started a new tradition. I moved an old tv, vcr, and dvd player out into shop and each evening when I go out, I pop in a John Wayne flick. Tonight, it was True Grit. In the picture, you can almost see Rooster, Maddie, and General Sterling Price negotiating in Chin Lee's back room.
I had been playing around with twin sticks for the transfer case. These need to come off for now. I will need to locate and cut a hole later, The cab was off a two wheel drive and has no slot for a transfer case shifter.
I attached two chains to the bottom rear door hinges that are still bolted to the frame. I hooked two others into the front cab mount accesss holes. Bringing the four chains together toward the front of the middle of the cab, I was able to get it to balance fairly well. I set the center of the chains too close to the floor which put my center of gravity higher than my hook. Luckily my son came out at the right time so he could run the jack while I supported the cab.
Up, up, up...
...and over...
...got to clear the shifter...
...and down.
