I'm only writing this so people think twice before working on a car in haste.
On Friday a very close family friend was working on the u-joint of his truck. From what I understand the car was on ramps. The car rolled onto him killing him. Not only did he lose his life but he has 2 daughters and his wife is 7 months pregnant with his first son. All I am saying is think twice before you get under your car. MAKE SURE that everything is secure. I know I don't have to say any of this and I'm sure people are reading this thinking "That will never happen to me" or "I've been working on my car for years and this hasn't happened" This guy was always working on his car. He knew what he was doing. So it CAN happen. I know I myself have done stupid things when I'm in a rush. Note: Please do not make comments about how this was stupid or any negative ****. I am not in the mood for it and If I see it I will just have a mod delete it. Just be respectful; If you have nothing nice to say please don't say anything. -------------------- Buy my Celica $2,500 - http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=76562&st=0

That's real sad, just a reminder to always be safe and have backups.
Myself used big wood blocks in addition to jack stand, I'm a sissy. My condolence. --------------------  -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |
