My dad was trapped under a car in the 60's. the hydrolic fluid leaked out of the jack. The car didn't fall, it put enough pressure on him that he couldn't get out. He yelled for help until a neighbor rescued him. He drilled a few things in my head, use stands, and clean and put the f#%~ing tools back in the right spot. Lol </div></div>
Good call jtower. Never, ever, ever get under a car w/o jacks stands. What you're doing is putting ALL YOUR TRUST in a .02 o-ring that can let go at anytime.<span style="font-weight: bold"> THINK BEFORE YOU JACK</span>

Re: WARNING: BE VIGILANT
That's exactly how I crawl under my car, except I go and put a floor jack under the subframe connector of the side I'm working on also. Yes it's overkill, until it saves your life.
