yes you can if you have a way to slig/lift it/balance it.

on mine I pulled the front clip as a unit then the cab with no doors at the time.

rolled the cab over back down/no glass to sandblast the bottom and under coat.

IIRC if you do not change the crossmember/engine support and get rid of the coil spring pockets the diff/shaft has no room to flex around.

it is a little more work unless you go up with lift to clear stuff.

look it over good on the 4x4 in that araea and you will see they way it is made different.
