I didn't have a prob with bending chassis, mine sat up-side-down for a couple of months, and walked over/worked on!
I know what u mean lifting it that high was a very nervous time...
While u got it up there u should be fitting IRS!

Nah just go buy yourself a heatgun and a scraper, just heat a area up then scrap away, u gotta be careful though to not put too much heat into the floor panels as they can warp..
so u get the majority off with the scraper then hit it with a grinder with a wire wheel attached...
Its a prick of a job
