Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"

congrats on the heater and garage time. coming along nicely. the blocks are def a great thing to have, like and idiot I don't have mine made yet.

as for the burb body. I'd nail two long 2x4's together to make a nice sturdy plank. Lift the cab off the frame enough to slide the planks under so they stick out past the Running board brackets. You'd have to do one plank up front, maybe not back. Jack up cab so its off frame put jack stands under the planks, slide frame out. Kinda hard to explain but you can't just jack the cab up and brace it cause the RB brackets would hit the jacks, so you just gotta use the plank to get the jacks out past the RB brackets.
