Guilty as charged on this one
Ranger can do a oil change with out jacking up the truck But 07 focus needs to be lifted on 1 side for oil change I use a 3 ton jack for a half ton job as a kind of safety measure and my jack stands are harbor freight (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) But i do still use them as a saftey catch Going to switch to low profile ramps in the future I helped my buddy do an oil change on his huge buick La cross and it needed to be jacked up to access the bottom . just used the 3 ton jack ( and i was a bit nervous) but i guess a 1/2 ton focus will kill you just as quick as a 3 ton buick ...... Ive jacked up and jack standed the 914 only once to Do the door close test . it passed And 914 gets worked on at air cooled specialist (never me) |
