290 Vehicle Care
3. Place a 1.2 m (4 ft) X 102 mm
(4 in) X 102 mm (4 in) wood
beam (4) under the front cradle
crossmember (3), and on top of
both tow chains (5) to ensure
the tow chains do not come
into contact with the front
fascia (1).
Try to minimize the contact of
the chains with the flexible
air dam (2).
4. Ramps (2) are required for the
front fascia (3) to clear the
flatbed (1). The ramp height
should be approximately
102 mm (4 in). Lower the
flatbed onto the set of ramps.
Caution
If ramps are not used, the front
fascia will come into contact with
the flatbed and may cause
damage. Always use ramps.
5. After the front tires are on the
flatbed adjust the flatbed
upward to provide additional
clearance between the air dam,
fascia, and flatbed.
6. When the fascia has enough
clearance to clear the flatbed,
lower the flatbed, and finish
pulling the vehicle onto the
flatbed.
7. Secure the vehicle to the
flatbed (2) using nonabrasive
straps (1) through all four
wheel openings and secure the
straps to the flatbed (2).
