Anyone have a comprehensive list of disconnect points need to raise a 72 body? I've watched how-to vids until I'm numb! Thx!

 

Welcome to the forum and glad you are willing to climb under the car so soon. I don't have a list but all I can share from my experience is to get under there and go one system at a time. Fuel, for example, you will need to disconnect the line from the tank. Brakes, you will need to disconnect the lines to the master cylinder. Steering, the rag joint. Electric, the fuse box coupler at the firewall. Any ground wires that you have. I think there is one from the battery to the frame underneath, etc. Vacuum lines going to the headlight bucket relays. Just too many things to be able to list them all. Just look at anything going down from the body to the frame. Then of course there are the body mounts themselves. Just go slowly and when you think you have it all done, start lifting the body and maybe have someone watchings one side of the car while you watch the other with flashlights to see if anything gets caught. And keep a good list, then YOU can have a list of things for the next guy to look out for. Just take your time, you can do this and take lotw of notes, lots of pictures and label each item into a baggie. Put the label on a piece of paper inside the baggie. Even Sharpie can get worn off. My rule #1 of You Tube rules says that if they can't focus the camera, cannot speak slow enough to understand and use curse words because they are illiterate, I change the channel no matter how good they might be. Usually they are not.

 

Thx! Apparently my type-A organizational skills are on the mark. I appreciate your time in responding.

 

Best method:
Block the frame so it can't move / roll
Disconnect everything you think is necessary. Don't forget the E-vap system. If auto - shift cable and key lock cable. Mark / tag all disconnected items and screws/ Fasteners. Take pictures of what you disconnect, before.
Then lift one to 2 inches and check everywhere. Use a good flashlight with a narrow beam.
Then repeat. 3 to 4 times.
Be sure to support the nose.
