A few hours in the garage getting ready to lift the body. Cut some blocks of wood to jam between the suspension arms. This is to stop the subframes collapsing to the floor when the body is lifted off. I also removed some of the nuts and bolts securing the subframes and just left 2 on each subframe to hold them in place. I started loosening the final nuts but as I undid them the body lifted off the subframes which confused me as I expected it to just stay in place. The bodyshell was not heavy enough to resist the springs. I left the last 4 nuts undone slightly. I also smacked an impact socket on to the last rusty nut holding the back box in place and undid it, I cut off the hanger rubbers and pulled the back box out. Removed all the suspension top mounting bolts. I bolted my lifting chains in to the seat mounting holes ready for tomorrow.
