Need some ideas if anyone has any.

The guy that bought my car is from Maui, I went to Young Brothers to ship the car today and they said it was too low to drive on the boat. We can put it on a pallett to ship it but it would cost ~200 more. I know this shouldn't be my problem, but if there was a way to lift the car a few inches I could help the guy out. so he doesn't have to pay the extra $$.

I called BMW because they put lifting blocks in the springs of all of their new cars to ship them to Maui, but they will not do it on my car because of liability issues. Typical...

Not sure what to do here. :help

coil spring spacers $9.99 at JC Whitney nyuk nyuk nyuk!

they used to have other, twist in metal blocks but this one should do the job w/o popping out. heck, I should get a pair of spacers for temporary use too.

Thanks!

I talked to the buyer and he is willing to pay the extra for shipping on a pallett, so we will just go that route.
