Default Re: jacked up reality

I wasn't as lucky

Was jacking up the car using the front, passenger side jack pad and realized only too late that I had not chocked the rears, nor did I set the e-brake. And with these cars being so stiff, it doesn't take much for one rear to raise off the ground when jacking up the front. The car rolled just enough to fall off the jack. Damage isn't too terrible, but, for me, ANY damage I inflict is too much damage - especially if it is due to my negligence.

Moral of the story - ALWAYS CHOCK THE TIRES/WHEELS BEFORE JACKING UP THE CAR.
