At the risk of sounding cruel I suggest we use the cats to chock the
wheels while we work at such things as silicone brake fluid and engine
oil; perhaps we could even disconnect the driveshaft while we have the car
blocked up. (j/k)
BTW, why on earth would you go to the trouble of disconnecting the
driveshaft for towing. I have never done this and have never seen any
problems because of it, or am I missing something?
