oh we have our tricks i turn a floor jack into a spare tire works almost everytime on a hard surface or on the trailer, ur idea is similar to what we do on a soft surface we jack up the car and slide a piece of fender under the tire or hub and it works like a sled. extreme situations is where the problems ar, on average and just a guess here probably 1 in 20 we have problems with, we have come a long ways ive got it on here somewhere but the first car we loaded took us hours, flat tires, buried up and no key, of course we had a comealong and ratchet straps, we ended up breaking the comealong, we didnt have alot of money back then but went to walmart and bought an airtank and a little reese winch rated for like 1500lbs or 2000 and would alternate the winch and a ratchet strap releasing tension on each one. we used that little winch for a few cars and worked really well if evreything was free on the car

Cory, your posts always remind of the days I'd go with my grandfather to work. He ran wrecked/totaled cars from all over Va, to bring back to the lot in fredricksburg, va. The many times me and my cousin helped stick a bumper where a tire woulda been, for a soda an a hotdog no less. LOL. Yea,we were cheap labor. lol

Brings back many good memories, thank you.

Keep working hard and going strong like you are and you'll go places.
