If you are taking the doors off, it isn't too much more effort to remove the guards.

Hmm, I might just be having a dumb moment but what are the guards?

If the body is on the frame and the doors have been removed, should I have braces in the doors? Or is it only once the body is going to come off?

Put the braces in before trying to lift the body - to keep it from bending...
