Alex GL-10 Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 I wasn't under it. I had it up on four blocks, and I just put new cv boots on the rear axles. I put the diff and axles in. I put the wheels on and was jacking it up to take the rear blocks out and it fell over. The front end, trans, and one of the axles caught it. They are all probably messed up.

Alex GL-10 Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 There is a car like mine at a pull-a-part junkyard. They let you go in and get the parts your self. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Thats real sad. Thats the most sorry excuse for a rack I've ever seen. Jack stands dont cost all that much. You could have been hurt and you definatly hurt your car. Hope you learned a lesson :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front end is not as bad as it looks in the pic. I can fix it easy. Collision repair is the kind of work I am going into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowmastered87GL Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 2 words Jack Stands Your life is worth it. (In elementary school a classmates dad was crushed by the family car because he had it up in a similar position) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always felt I redeemed my life a bit when I offer something I did as a horrible example in warning to the next generation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex GL-10 Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 I have the car on the ground now, with JACK STANDS holding the front up. Now I just have to finish fixing it. Not sure what all of the damage is from the fall, it got dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
