    Looks like a bit of an overkill but what ever works.   :clapping:    Did it damage anything?

    No, it took a shot in the nose anway broke both the motor and trans mounts right off the inner rails. You just get the tip of the fork under the lip of the hood and pull the joystick. Anything is better than doing it out there by hand.

    I have seen people do that before to get something open.  Guess it worked.

      Found a car a few years (non MOPAR) back with perfect front guards an bonnet and I was allowed to have them if I removed the wreck afterwards. One of the other guys wanted the engine but didn't tell me. So he got a forklift and ripped the bonnet open & back, then stomped both guards down so the rope around the motor would hook onto the fork..    :hyper:   :stomp:   
      Needless to say I didn't bother to dispose of the wreck and they thought I did the wrong thing.   :villagers:   :banghead:
