We did that's the best we got it. Originally it was gonna sit in the streetI definitely would’ve tried to bribe the driver to deliver them a little closer

Wheel dollies. These are normally used with one under each wheel in order to roll a car around. But they should work for crates as well, and you can use them later as wheel dollies.

Pallet Jack that was on the truck? Or get one at harbor freight. They are like $300

I have those for wheeling them around the garage it's more about getting the top one down from chest height haha.
Yeah the problem is more getting the top axle down from chest height. Those pallet jacks don't lift that high to separate the crates.
My current best idea is to grab a HF engine hoist tomorrow to lift the top axle out then from there the wheels or dolly carts should be fine

Push it over. It’ll get scratched eventually anyway.

Front axle was just mis tagged, pinion to hub rotations checks out with 4.88 and the rear was tagged 4.88
