hmm. thats not a half bad idea :D
2x4 across the front fenders with some rope or a ratchet strap.
Because most 2x4s are kinda long, use the excess to make blocks to lift the beam up a little more.

or, on the safe side, I could head up to northern tool on hwy100 inbetween bluemound and greenfield ave and pick one up for a smooth $49.99 and its fully adjustable and gauranteed to support 1,100 lbs. I figured they would be more expensive then that.

5.00 worth of 2x4s and ratchet straps ftw.

Just make sure to get the one with the threaded device that raises/lowers the height of the chain/cable. The ones with the ratchet suck to work with, I actually gave one of those away because I hated it so much.....:fire
