Sweet cruise control.

P.Rico · 04-07-2012, 11:20 AM

Stripped the hatch area, placed a few Dynamat tiles, and sealed the hatch completely with Frost King duct insulation foam.

What happened?

FastAdams · 04-07-2012, 06:26 PM

Well these two guys had planned to swap exhausts between their two cars. They each used two scissor jacks to get their cars off the ground. One of the kids was under his car when the scissor jack fell over and it landed on his head and chest. Luckily 5 or 6 guys rushed over immediately and lifted the car off of him (the car was very very low to begin with so the entire car was resting on him for 15 seconds) and dragged him out from under it. Luckily he was still coherent after losing body functions for a few seconds and was able to identify what happened and where he was. The ambulance rushed him to the York hospital and he seems to be doing ok. Thats why i NEVER lift my car without using jack stands.

Painted my hella's cherry blossom red and hooked up the relay. Also clay bar'd the car.

Yeah the other kid who's car didn't fall had borrowed my scissor jacks too. Glad it wasn't the one that fell, and i didn't even ask for it back when i left later in the day. Never using one again.

Rule #1: NEVER TRUST A JACK. Seriously, most jacks even have warnings on them saying to use jack stands. I have no sympathy for the guy who very clearly broke that rule.

Removed my roof rack for a little while.

Does anyone know / have the correct feet position for the rack on the GD series sedans for a Thule rack?!

Washed the Forester and filled in numerous paint chips.
