How to Jack Up a Car Safely

[K1ll3rM4st3r]

Should ALWAYS use a jack stand. But if you dont have one.... using a floor jack is much safer to trust on it's own. but still not recommended. The little shtity ones that come with the car is just asking to be killed.

I wish my Uncle could have seen this, He was killed today while jacking up a Shed to move it.

@gibsonlespaul2 sorry about your loss.

I think you should add gloves or towels to the list. When I change my tires from flat on the road the bolts are too hot.

dont buy those scissor jacks they say ONE use on the box. theyre emergency use only, might fail on you, beware

@otacon451

I had one of these jacks... I replaced it with a hydraulic one... Much more reliable... Much better lifting the AXLE rather than the body.

Step 1: Find the jack

Step 2: Stick the jack in your asshole

Step 3: Have friend crank jack to expand asshole

Step 4: Find huge black guy

Step 5: Remove black guy from asshole

Step 6: Shake hands and be on your way

If you're not smart enough to jack up a car you shouldn't be driving, or even allowed to own a car.......

[aznsketcher]

that scissor jack's handle needs a new design. holy shit, watching that guy work the handle is torture.

[gunsoulja]

"If you use a jack stand?" there shouldn't be an if lol, never trust a jack on its own, that's a death wish

[Matty231]

lol

[akhera01]

only if your going to be working under the vehicle

[ShootingAugust]

@gunsoulja I would agree if you are getting under the car, but the spare tire and jack kit in your trunk does not usually contain a jack stand.

Notes to all:

1:Chocks aren't necessary in all situations.

2:Jack the car up a little, but leave the wheel touching in order to initially loosen the nuts. Once they will spin freely jack the car the rest of the way up.

3: On larger vehicles with hydraulic type jacks you place them on the axle rather than on the side of the car.

[mrjost55]

why even bother lifting the car before you loosen the lug nuts/bolts? I loosen them before lifting.

[davidzzz94]

@randumbguy u loosen the lugs before u even jack the car... 

[swtskybear3]
