I'm considering switching bodies between a 7 passenger syncro and a 2wd weekender camper, that way, the camper gets mounted on a syncro chassis.
  Anyone out there have experience with this? Is there any difference between a 2wd and a syncro body?
Is this easily done by a backyard mechanic?
Do I need a crane to transfer the two bodies, or can you get a group of 8-10 people around the body to lift and transfer them?
Thanks,
List newbie,
Brian Butler
