<DIV>Since I couldn't make it to last night's meeting, I have put together a little "e-mail tech tip" for you...</DIV>
<DIV>I was going to make a little presentation on the dangers of "careless jacking".....not so much the physical dangers, which you should already know about...hopefully you practice safety to prevent bodily harm!!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But I mean when jacking the car up repeatedly, or in a rush, you can almost be certain to damage the body seam edge (most of us have a "rolled" edge of this in at least 1 spot)</DIV>
<DIV>I even let my car down too quickly on a jack stand alone and punctured the rear body jacking area...(see picture)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My buddy Steve B had a great idea years ago, which was was to cut a triangular piece of 2x4 to fit into the jacking spot in the rear..it nicely fills the void, protects the body from damage, and it lets you actually place a jack stand next to the jack in one motion! </DIV>
<DIV>So, take your time and prevent some damage!</DIV></FONT></td></tr></table><br>
