They're just changing the tires, not working under the car.

what are you afraid of pussy?

Mexicans treat your vehicle like they treat their own.

They treat their vehicles like shit.

>>14673624
So say you got a flat, you wouldn't change the tire while it's on a jack because you don't have a jack stand?

Stop being retarded, there is literally nothing wrong with OPs pic.
>>
>>14673606
gee bill, how come your mom lets you have THREE jacks?

Am I on the side of the road, or at my shop?

It's lazy, anon. It takes two seconds to throw a jack stand or a block of wood under there.

>mfw one of those jacks lets go and the owner sees his truck sitting on its brake disks

>>14673606
I've used a single scissor jack under the rear pumpkin on a Ranger to pull both the rear tires off and work on the brakes.

Was on a slight incline so I used 2x4's to chock the front wheels.

I was on my feet the entire time ready to jump out of the way if it started to go. Everything went off without a hitch though.

If it did fall off I wouldn't have been too mad. It's a fucking Ranger. Nothing would have been broken, they are bulletproof piles of shit. Would have just jacked it back up and carried on.

Never seen a hovermode conversion? It's 2016, Anon. We've had them for months now.

Fucking normies, i be you think cars are just contraptions TO GET YOU FROM A TO B ReeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Saw this on a minivan that was "making a weird brake noise"
>>
youre meant to put the wheels under the car if you dont have stands
>>
>>14675343
woah, I bet that soccermom screamed at you for trying to con her into buying brake pads lel
>>
>>14675443
It was actually a guy who used the van for his electrician business. The whole thing as such an unbelievable mess.

He ended up needing a new caliper because the piston actually popped out since there were no pads and got all fucked up.
>>
>three 3-ton jacks
>all positioned with an even weight distribution
I really don't see the problem if they are just changing tires.

that being said I always use jack stands when I'm under a car.
>>
>>14673645
The jack in my car isn't hydraulic. It's much less likely to fail.
>>
>>14673606
Provided no-one got under the car, and the surface is flat...
Mind you I'd still kick the arse of whatever worker it was that did this, because it looks unprofessional, and it's in a public car park. You can't control that space.
>>
Car was at a 45 degree angle on our express bay lift because one of our techs wasn't paying attention and one of the locks never released as he was lowering the vehicle.
>>
>>14675343
lol i saw this on a subaru wagon. the guy brought it in for new tires and it stayed overnight. as i was bringing it in for the night i noticed a grinding sound from braking. turns out he had no brake pads on the rear.
>>
>>14675343
Damn

Just... fuck my shit up

I cant find the pic but imagine pulling a sparkplug and seeing the sock you used to keep nuts and bolts out of the carb intake.

I don't run 1/8" thick solid rotors.

>>14673606

The shitty tire shops here only use two jacks, balance the car with one on each end.
