Yes, I chocked it. It was still wanting to inch forward.

I was going to tie it to a tree. But, no real tree's to speak of around here. Just palm tree's and they are pretty soft. I don't want to risk that. They don't have much of a root system.

I'm still surprised at the amount of force required to move the LCA forward. Using the strap method.... Are you guys using a small ratcheting strap or a big one? I don't see how you can do that without bending some sheet metal around the bumper/shock mount.

It's raining out right now. First time in almost 2 months. Go figure... This job and the windshield gasket I was trying to get done before the rainy season starts next month.... I guess it is here early.
