BE SAFE when working on your car - A Sobering Reminder

Wow, that sucks. Like everyone says... glad you're ok! I used to work without jackstands when I first started working on cars. That was before someone explained how stupid it

I used to work without jackstands when I first started working on cars. That was before someone explained how stupid it was to trust a jack. Friend of mine had a family member drop his camero on him because he wanted to use the jack and didn't know he was under the car. He was ok, just a few bruised ribs but it could of been worse.

Wheel chalks and jackstands for anything I can't use my ramp for. Also, never have the car on 4 jacks, it's really easy to tip over. Almost had my 914 drop on me that way.
