Here's a story to make your toes curl...
My 1975 landcruiser was delivered via open top. the dude first unloads a 1960's plymouth, then my truck.. then realizes the plymouth won't start... and his winch is out of service. well, there's NO WAY the two of us can push the car up... so his solution is to have me use my landcruiser...
Well, my landcruiser has a tow ball on the front bumper.. sticks out maybe 4 inches... I pointed that out to him.. He says... verbatim here... "Ahh, don't worry about it... this guy bought this car off of ebay, and he's never seen it. he won't know the damage wasn't there before.."
So i put my tlc in low 4 wd.. but then discover i have a transfer case issue, and can't get into 4wd.. so 2wd it is... but can't develop the torque necessary at such low speeds, so i end up doing about 5-6 slow running starts (maybe 4-8 mph) and ram the rear end of the car to get it all the way up the ramp!
Guy says thanks, and drives off... never hear back..
