KiNK43 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I always had to use one, just to lift the car onto trolley jack. Was so low couldndt just slide one under.but seriously I've had a mates car slip off one and had to about break my neck holding car while got something to stop it. Nightmare and never again. Especially now it seems to be a common story. That's tellin me something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karjis Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Those original car jacks are really widow makers, never put even your toes under the car when using those on some emergency situation :/I have only got car to fall from that kind of jack once, but luckily all wheels were in place.. No one should use those, cheapest 2 ton hydraulic trolley jacks are like 20 euros and those are hundred times more stable than those boot jacks.
