I already have one of those silly, it doesn’t matter anyway, they never send a competant tow truck driver. They usually send a regular tow truck and then argue when I want a flat bed.

ugh , been there, done that…and even when they sent a flat bed…they still fucked my bumper…no flat bed extends out long enough to create a gradual enough of an incline so that when they pull it up backwards, the nose doesn’t dip down…i remember seeing my fascia literally like pull out and almost turn inside out from the nose dragging…then i told the guy, “figure something else out right now, because this obviously isn’t working”

You just got to make it painfully clear to them that it is not an option, you NEED a flatbed. Trust me, with my cars, they’ve ALL been flatbedded, haha. MULTIPLE times! Haha.

with VERY minor mods to the strut mount (knock out one stud on the mount) a SRT4 strut/spring/brakes/knuckle bolt into an omni. you might have to slot the upper strut bolt hole where it meets to the knuckle to get the camber correct but thats cake. srt springs should be correct for height but folks i know doing this are using coilovers so they can lower the cars.
