Loading it from the side is actually a bitch. About the time the rear starts to climb your falling off the other side. Freaks the wife out when i do it.

I hear you. It took me several tries to find a line that worked to climb my lowboy, and like you said, you have to nearly run off the far side to get the rear up.

I can't find a pic, but I was able to go right over the rear "deck" on mine, but I'm on 17.5 tires, so not quite as tall in back.

I was bored one day, so crossed the deck to check the flex.

Lol looks like you never get any work done... just not too long ago you’re posting pictures of your Jeep up on rocks [emoji23] next you’re probably going to be flexing on your dozer in some fashion

Damn. You are all organized. I still don’t have my damn Jeep back. Tools are all scattered across my garage floor yet. Lot to do. Making me feel bad!

You sound like me, right up to the last minute getting ready.

I at least have all of my tools in a pile on my rolling workbench.
