![Doh! :doh:](./images/smilies/eusa/doh.gif)
Started back to work a few weeks ago on light duty ( can you say 1000's of emails ) and saw the my surgeon on Friday for the second time.
The Doc gave me the OK to begin using my arm a little

I'm not supposed to lift angthing above my head so I am taking it easy, I just do my wrenching standing up

I started my fame swap this weekend and was able to get the donor frame cleaned up and treated with after blast to protect it in the short term. I reinforced anything that proved to be a weak or rust spot on my existing frame and removed excess brackets and mounts.I still need to french the rear spring mounts and decide if I want to switch to XJ springs in the rear at the same time to soften the ride.....
Removed the old Heap's body with the aid of a dozen or more cut -off wheels ,lots of PB Blaster with impact wrench and liberal amounts of knuckle skin.
The old frame was way worse than I thought and I'm amazed it did not seperate/ break on some of the harder runs last year

Couple of pics of the frame prep and body extraction.....
