I'm pretty sure Harbor Freight has one. I think you can also use a wooden baseball bat if you are really cheap.

I'm thinking about renting one from a member on the turbobuick forum.

Baseball bat is all I have ever used.

It kinda depends on how much room you have between your tires and your wheel wells.

But the way we did (you will need assistance lol) it was to put the bat between the tire and wheel well. Then get some of your buddies to start putting some weight in the trunk and/or get in the back seats. We would try to get is lose to touching as possible. Then place the bat where you want to start on the wheel well. And add enough weight to bring the car down about 1/2" or less. Then have someone push the car while someone else guides the bat, and stop when you have gone far enough. I don't recommend putting the car in gear to do this, also tell the people in the back seat to keep still. You don't wanna kink your quarter panel. And if it needs more, just repeat again. Do a little at a time.
