glad to hear you are alright. but i dont trust those little ramps at all! definitely not with a tire that is over 25" or so. The lip on them is just too small!

I'm really glad things didn't go any worse than it did.  Take some time and heal up.  It's just another reminder that there is nothing more important than life and our loved ones.

Wow, I'm gone for one day and look what you go and do!  I am so glad you are alright, it could have been so much worse!!!!  Do me a favor and get rid of those ramps, ok?  Please feel better soon and keep us posted on how you are doing.

I am much more mobile today.. still pain but mobile.... I made a post on moparts also and they are all positive as well.... a couple quotes from there I like:


 Wedge, you just saved somebodys kiester. Don't know who, or when, but somebody will remember your little episode and double check something..........bet on it. 




Get well soon, glad you made it.

Up to this point, over 460 people have read about your mishap. 460 people will be more cautious when jacking or working on a jacked-up car. You've made a positive impact, thanks for sharing.



Sorry to hear.  Looks like the rear tires rolled off of the ramps to me...not good. I`ve been wrenching out of my house for many years and have never(knock on wood)had a car fall off of stands and I don`t like ramps at all.....never used em and NOW never will. I hope you recover soon and thankxx for sharing, you may be saving someone else



Glad you're ok...
going to hang this on the bulletin board at our shop.
Can't stress enough the importance of being over cautious and safe...especially when working on someone else's pride and joy.

Yes not only is that guy holding the car up with boards, he's also welding right next to the fuel tank!   :screwy:

Glad you're OK stroker.  Hope this doesn't effect your pool game as I want you at your best when we finally play!
