cut the trunk lid in half notch where its cut and then prebend a little to get it to start a slight roll, worked well this past year for me

Wedge, flat stack, dimple 2xs, 12inch or less bumper height the bumper height only works if everyone else does it, otherwise they will just drive over your trunk then push it down in the ground. |

With a good flat stack of springs it doesn't matter... They're in alot worse position than you'll ever be in that situation... |
