Repair Report and Warning 200 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be BrickDad on  Fri Oct 13 05:31 CST 2006 [RELATED]

Here's another scary scenario. I left my 90 240 on two front ramps and two jack stands during my extended clutch job. One morning when starting to get to work I found that overnight the jack stands had sliced through the asphalt driveway, tilting enough so that the car ran back down the ramps. Parking brake was on and a log that I placed behind the front wheel stopped the car before it hit anything else.

Now I put the jack stands on a square piece of wood to spread out the weight and lower the car when not working on it.
