For bonus points, say "that's not going anywhere" after tightening to make sure the car won't move.

home depot sells 2 in x 8 in by 12 feet and will cut 12, 12" shims for you. FYI for anyone out there that does not have shims available. Cost is less than $20.

Great video. I want to track my SS 1le but i didnt want to buy a car hauler trailer that will sit around most of the time. This uhaul transport will do the job fine. And i was looking on ways to load the car and you nailed it. This takes a big load off me man...

If you rent a Uhaul trailer from the hood. Check the lights yourself because the salesman will lie and say they work.

Highly recommend putting the wood blocks under the front wheels even if you have enough clearance at the front bumper because my car was too low to clear the fender support (even with the top of fender lowered down there is still a vertical shield/support in the way) and I think the blocks would have lifted it above the fender support.

[ericbrownj]

Perfect demonstration on how to do it properly, and I have the same vehicle!

[markknight]

Nice presentation, clear and easy to understand. Thank you.

[ncarsunited]
