Default aparently...

my sway bar disco must not be workin because i took the jeep all the way up the jack to rotate the tires. then like a tardi smashed my finger pretty bad
rotated the tires and took it for a test drive and i guess the disco was in effect but i got the the death jiggle (first stage of death wobble). i looked over setup and i had a heim joint about to fall off the tierod and a ball joint is shot. i guess i need ti fix the ball joints now.

here are some interesting or cool pictures

I sent the photo to a buddy at hi-lift. His response.

"Might be one of the most dangerous unsafe photos I have seen. Total liability issue. No jack stand or block?

Ton of unstable weight lifting from there. Crazy."

He thought they might use it as one of their "what not to do with a jack" pictures.

Please be safe.

I don't see the jeep moving, but I see jacks slip all the time. Especially on concrete or asphalt. I think they are actually safer in the dirt where they can dig in a little bit.

Just because the jack can do it doesn't mean it should do it. Its just one reason that people think the jack is dangerous, because people use it in a dangerous way.

Now, I'm stepping off my soap box.
