Follow-up on yesterday's post: I cut a piece of wood at a compound angle so it would snuggle into the angle between the frame rail and the left suspension tower of the Spitfire, allowing the hydraulic jack, which turns out to claim 12 tons on the side, to exert tremendous unstoppable force on the bent-back bumper and frame.
Unfortunately, I forgot that the words "Central Hydraulic", a Harbor Freight house brand, take priority over "12 ton hydraulic jack". I think this thing is maybe capable of a ton and a half, max. Definitely not enough to move bent frame rails.
Sigh.
Back to the drawing board.
