Haha, I've done this for oil changes before, but put 1 tire up on the curb, WAY easier than jacking, and jackstands.

He had limited daylight, and as such, he never popped out :nut:

I've done that. But at my house. The driveway was over a rolled curb. Just backed into my driveway and left the front tires at the top of the curb. Had lots of room other then me laying half onto the road lol

Is that all ya got? Not really all that bad...

I'm still waiting for my thread though - musta been a beyonder driving by sunday night while I was winching the vdub off the bobcat trailer - saw a flash from a camera while a white prelude was driving by :D That unloading technique was much sketchier than what this guy is doing :angel:

I'll be honest, I've done that on my old car, just backed up my car until the rear wheel was on the edge of the curb and crawled under it. Pretty safe anyways.

I swear I've seen that car parked (stored) on the side of the road in the Greenview Industrial Park.

Anyway, I did this to replace an 02 sensor in my truck. But it was on my own property...
