Re: To pull the body or not?

For me it would depend on the condition of the sheetmetal.

Are the body mounts and floor pans solid? If so then I would raise the body a couple of inches so I could clean and wire brush the frame and then coat it with POR.

If you have rust that requires anything more than a simple round piece of sheetmetal to replace the rusted area, then having the frame out of the way will definitely help with larger rust replacement.
