Glad he's ok... I hope he likes a liquid diet. I've been there with facial surgery.
Amen to that SC. We all hope he gets well and recovers quickly.Originally Posted by SCIV
Just imagine if someone like Ricky was there to help...he couldn't have lifted the truck..and he'd be screwed. Now I know why Danny has always used two sets of jackstands when doing a tranny swap--or anything under the truck. When you go to break loose the bellhousing from the block, we wiggle it pretty damn good to break it away from the keyways...probably in the same fashion as what he did when messing with the CVs...

Sorry to hear about that man.
I'm curious - did it give out because of the dirt giving way? I would think "no" because you said it was on plywood. Just curious what part was actually unstable. I do exactly what Greg said - jack stands where I need them then just a little pressure on the jack to serve as a 3rd support point.
Sorry again and pass along our thoughts...
Ouch thats gotta hurt... That is why I always to a push pull test with the truck in the air and the wheels still on it to make sure that sh!t dont happen
Wow. My prayers are deffinitely with him. Hope he gets well soon.
Its crazy to think that something like this actually happens, I mean I KNOW it happens but just hearing about it makes it hit you hard.
