Default Re: Lifting 30 Tudor body

2 2X6’s through the doors windows will work but the backside will hang down a little, I opted for 2X6’s doubled through the doors windows and through the quarter windows with a spreader bar between the two wooden members. The spreader was square 2 in tubing with lifting eyes in the middle, it was safe too work under the body and was steady. I made a beam of 2-3 2X12 and 4X4 posts nailed to the sides of my garage and used two chain hoists.
