If your pickup isn't brazed good it's too easy to shift it upwards.
Plus unless you have a lift all that work laying on your back isn't fun.

I would pull the whole thing so much easier doing it on a stand.
And you can get everything cleaned up nicely.

I agree, I kind of want to take it to machine shop and do a top end kit while I'm at it. Any input on that?
