Gen 3 Raptor 37 jack vs 35 jack

Off road teams typically carry these organically grown tire jack spacers with the other gear in their pit gear boxes.

Ah! I didn’t even think of using those! Very good redneck ingenuity!

True story: maybe 15 years ago, at the SCORE race in Primm, NV, a class 1 buggy raced by the Wilson's had either destroyed or lost their left rear shocks. They came limping by our little road crossing with a STOP sign & sign post stuffed between the upper shock mount and the transaxle, and asked us to check the lug nuts on that corner. We checked it out and told them that 2 of the studs were completely missing, the other 3 had the lug nuts seized up (while not actually tight), the lug nut holes were now oval, and the beadlock rim was taco'd. He said " that's what I thought", and as they drove off, the loose wheel made that formerly-beautiful, $150,000 state of the art race car look like a clown car.
