Today I needed to work under one side of the car. I slid the jack under and looked to see if it was in a good spot. Start lifting the car and then heard an odd noise. The car immediately Dropped. ??? I had put the jack on a plug in the florr. The jack was standing verticle and was inside the car! All better now, but THAT WAS DUMB!!

i use 2 jacks to get under my car, just in case one fails.... one is only rated at 700 kg.... err 1540 pounds.... eeps

meh how much does a 1/4 of a SA weigh anyway

An FB weighs around 2200 lbs. I'd bet that an SA weighs close to that. I could be entirely wrong, but that would mean a quarter of it weighs under 600 lbs.?

I use jack stands to be safe, although one time my car rocked off of four jack stands.

Now i know someone who will let me use a rundown shop with hardly any tools, but it has a lift
