You just lost me. Okay.. you are essentially talking to the guy who can't
seem to figure out how to get his toilet to stop running without jiggling
the handle. Then agaiin, I've installed a blower motor.. so I can follow
directions if they are explained explicitly...

i.e... I'm dense but can read directions if they are in illustrative.

Okay.. this is what I'm imagining... Slip baseball bat, fat side up-->
handle side down inbetween fender and brand new AVS intermediates (16" on
Borbet's). Essentially the baseball bat is being pressured to near
perpendicular to the ground. 

Apply moderate but hopefully equal pressure to handle area (close to the
ground) and have someone push the car. Turn bat at speed of car while
applying pressure. Voila...?????
