My grandfather was killed when using 4 bumper jacks to lift a car while he replaced the exhaust system for $5.00 labor. Jacking a car is serious business.

@PREDATEURLT 20 дней назад

Any kind of jack that has cylinders, threads and so on should never used to work under the car, it has to by solid objects.

@kencorsell8087 Год назад

I worked in many gas stations where jacking up a car onto floor jacks by hand was standard operating procedure, in one place we had 12 bays and only 2 floor lifts that were kept open for quick oil changes. The rest were all on floor jacks. Many of the older center post lifts don’t allow access to the central area under the car, which is where the mechanical parts of the car are located.

Always have 2 things holding the car up. A couple of old rims, a couple more jack stands, some tire cribs under the frame, whatever will stop a car from crushing you. If one thing fails, it is better to crap your pants from being scared than from being crushed.

Stress testing the metal being used knowing your welds have penetrated sufficiently? As I said I admire the ingenuity not once have a do e any of these creations down, some are very clever.
