with one gigantic gulp he consumed the spinach and the effects were immediate. the high concentrate of vitamins and nutreants in the spinach cycled throughout his body and settled in his massive tattooed 20" forearms. with the fresh dose of energy, s2knoob02 was able to bench press the 2000 lbs vehicle off his chest with one arm and continued his exhaust install with the other. all the while his 2 other buddies stood flailing their arms in noodle like fashion screaming out, "oohh s2knoob, ooohh sk2noob, do something s2knoob".
seriously, glad s2knoob02 is ok and a big

this thread should be a sticky along with all the DIYs for safety sake. first hand account of something we all feel can't happen to us.
jackstands>wheels>wood blocks>cinder blocks>hydraulic/scissor jacks.

This has always been one of my fears, and i rarely use jackstands. Although when I do something that requires taking off the tire i always put them under my car just in case, but ill definately be using jackstands now, thats scary...

quick tip that i was taught..in addition to jack stands..whenever i jack it up and remove a wheel, i place the wheel in a place where it can help prevent the car from crushing me in case everything else fails...like right under the side sills next to the jackstand or under a suspension piece thats not being worked on...
im paranoid..
i get nervous when walking under a car while its on a shop rack thing...(think...accordian effect + human body = owwie)
