Also use a piece of wood on top to help distribute the load. I just don't want to see anyone get hurt.

Easy guys, the car is on jack stands, the cropping of the picture just cuts them off, the cinder blocks are just a security

Whew!


My Grandfather got trapped under his Ford Pinto years ago after the cinderblock he was using broke, fortunately my Uncle was there to help him. Just didn't want anything bad to happen to you! (or anyone working under a vehicle)

Spent the weekend putting on a few hundred miles doing what she does best up on Rt 36 Needless to say I've got a new favorite road. It was incredible.


You'll have to excuse the awkward GoPro fish eye
