Re: "Project S" - My boy Sam's '72 2wd Blazer -The Red Sled

My biggest fear is the stress on the single anchor point in the ceiling. I will likely build a baseplate that'll distribute the weight between 2 trusses. I'd hate to have my top come crashing down to the floor. And I figure if I build it strong enough, I could use it to yank engines I am planning on building a rig to lift the top off of the Blazer, but once it is in the air, I will likely rest it on two suspended crossbars that'll take the tension off of the single lift point for the winch. (I've been mentally engineering it) -haha.
