OP Jos Shade Tree Mechanic Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 46 Lochem Netherlands	I'm in the process of rebuilding a 1954 Suburban. Now it is time the put the body on the chassis. It came off many years ago (ca. 15 years). I have all the bits & peaces still, but I can't remember where to put the wooden blocks, other bolts, etc. I tried to find a sort of exploded view in the 1947-1954 Factory Assembly Manual, but this section is not in the manual. So I need help where to put the bolts and wooden blocks. Any help will be appreciated. Jos 1951 Chevy PU owner since 1997. 1954 Chevy Suburban owner since 2020.
