yup i bought a low profile jack last year. first time i got to use it was just gonna be a quick measure of the u joint bearing caps when i was getting the new d.s. jacked the car up and figured what the hell i dont need stands just left the jack under the car. really was a bad choice in hindsight. i was under it measuring and the jack had a bad valve and started letting out slowly while i was under it. scared the crap out of me....even though i got out from underneath with plenty of room...just the thought of the valve giving way all at once and i was toast.
never again.
