I used the big block of wood just on the back floor brace first then I did
the front floor brace. The balance point of the body is in front of the
back
tires  up further from were I have the 4 X 4.

Dave,

How did you raise the body off the frame enough to slip the 4 X 4's between
the frame and the body?  Also with the 4 X 4 just in front of the rear
wheel well, I'm wondering how much balance there was - a little weight on
the front  4 X 4 or adequate as to keep the body from tipping off the back?

I Removed the body from the frame on the  1968 chevelle I am doing right
now. There was questions on how to do it before  so I took some step by
step pictures. The only tools used are heavy duty jack  stands, 4x4 posts,
some other wood, 3 ton floor jack and taking your time doing  it.When done
I also tie the 4x4 together. I only have a double  garage.

If wanting to see the pictures they are on  the 1968 chevelle restoration
under frame.
