But it only seems logical that this would have been done YEARS ago....you know?

Hm, I presume you're talking about a situation where you would need to lift the car to allow the tow truck trailer arm to reach your rear wheels, so it can dinghy tow the car? Unless you are touching the ground with your coilovers, I don't think it would be too much of an issue.

Concerning towing it up onto a bed of a tow truck, that is a different story. You better hope the truck has some long pieces of wood!
