Re: SiX-fo SuBuRbAn

Next I have to give a huge thanks to member PAPAKENT, who had stopped by to pull a receiver hitch, and stuck around to help with putting the body on.

this time I decided lifting the whole body with 2 camper jacks on the cement was too sketchy, and used a third body lift jack at the rear to triangulate the lift... much safer.
I also ran some bolts and chain through the front 4 body mounts to lift from, mainly because the new rockers are not on yet, and there was nowhere else to lift, but this also helped out a couple things, less chance of rocker/body damage from the jacks, and it also got the bases out wide enough that they didn't interfere with the tires.

( I snuck some photos of papak. into the last shots!)
