fuck cheap jacks
 
had my car on a jackstand and then i lifted it up with a jack so i could sip the radiator in from teh bottom, so i got the radiator in balh blah blah, took a break and i come back and the jack has lowered, and the jackstand isnt sitting on the tow hook, its sitting IN MY ------ INTERCOOLER. so now i have to get another intercooler, wait for it to come, pull off my bumper, and put that bitch in. what a pain in the ass, ---- cheap jacks.

moron... everyone knows to watch out for jacks to fall slowly... my 400 dollar snap on jack does it sometimes.

There your mistake right there! You should place the on the Unibody reinforcement ether at where the rocket meet the belly pan, or the frame rail under farther!!!

Sorry about the loss though.
