Glad your OK man. Jackstands are the answer.

I once had a jack fail when my 75' Nova was 16-18" off the ground. I was done working on it and was jacking UP to remove the jack stands then, CRUCH. The jackstands got knocked over and PANCAKED. Boy am I glad no-one was under there. I'm not worred about doing that with my bronco thought, lol. I never need a jack to work under it, lol.

i think we all need to stop actining like we're perfect and have never done anything careless before.

once something like this happens to you, it makes you think alot before you start your next project(should i do it like this or should i...).

Glad your alright!

Dont get cheap jackstands. I tacoed one before and dropped a truck 4 feet to the ground. (saw it coming though, stepped back.)
