In case I have to move my shell, anyone have pics of how you did it?
Search didn't yield anything other than a bare tub without glass or doors weighs 520lbs.
Heres one-

Ok, so here is what worked for me.
Built a dolly.
Loaded the tub on it.
Strapped the tub to the dolly. Around bottom and front of dolly to suspension. Rear of dolly to motor mounts.
Rolled the dolly and tub onto tilt trailer (took three of us).
Strapped tub, strapped dolly to trailer.
Drove 180 miles and never moved an inch! smilie_pokal.gif

I had made a chassis mover out of 4x4's and casters.... rolled it on to the trailer and tied it down.. didnt move..

No pics but I made a tub table out of an old front suspension cross member, then a bunch of angle iron welded in a rectangle with legs welded up to the spare cross member, in front, and suspension plates in the rear.

3 people can lift it, but 4 is better.
Three or four furniture dollies from Home Depot will do the job just fine.

On wheels, it rolls around no problem

Lennie and I made one and it was easy to roll around! If you want to use it to transport you would just have to strap the 2x6's to the chassis and roll it up on to a flat bed!
