is it a place to set the hood on for body work. And paint?

Ah. That would probably make putting the hood on with one person a real snap.
This should be in the "cool tips and tricks" thread if its not already there...

That's a great idea! With a little modification it could probably be used for the cab too.

I like the hood idea!
For lifting cabs and beds I designed this collapsible lift attachment. I got tired of trying to get enough friends together or beating myself up more that I already have.
And it self balances!

You guys are too sharp!! It is for one person hood install/remove.

Nice job. I could have used one of those about 6 years ago.

The front 1" tube rests on the bracket on the inside of the hood. It has a slot cut into it and a through hoe for a bolt to lock it secure. I've made a slight change and the long arms now rest on the internal hood brace instead of the edge of the hood.

I'm out on business until the weekend but I'll take some detailed photos when I get back. If you want a drawing I can do but might take a week or two.
