Is it true?
I have heard of people doing body lifts with hockey pucks...

Is this true? Has anyone done it?

Bad juju. Hockey pucks are too soft and deteriorate too quickly to use as a body lift. The problems are compounded if you use a stack of two or three of them for additional lift.

Well I thought people used them as spacers, and they seemed to work. Not a bad idea if you dont have the cash...

Very popular in the ghetto jeep crowd. Those posts helped me realize the potential for leveling my Tuffy console (FSJ).

Fruitcakes are even better
