You Know What Big Al Wants For Christmas?
I want a few things.
Id like to have a new jack that can jack up the car with 5 pumps, not the 4042504 pumps it takes now....
Id like to have a nice 3/8ths impact gun
Id like some stuff for the 87 and/or 72
But I would forgo the presents if the Cowboys can beat the Giants tonight, and go on to sweep the Playoffs and win the Super Bowl.
Its been so long since any of my teams have won the big game, but the Cowboys have returned to the brides maid of the NFC yet again. I just want to see them win another one.

Meh...I was at Sears the other day, and they had a jack that was at full extent in 5 pumps.
THATS what I want.

Laaaaaaame...
Anyway, reading reviews of the jack...seems that all the jacks have a problem failing after only a few uses. From the regular low profile jack, to the higher end aluminum ones. It either starts leaking, the u-joint breaks, but in general just garbage.
I have my own opinion of Sears, but Ill reserve that for now.

All the Cowboys want for Christmas is an offensive line. Romo is running for his life, already sacked twice and knocked down once. lol

He might not come back...
There is a weakspot in the line tonight, and they are pushing through. They were looking good for a second there, even with Romo running for his life.

Check the fluid. Seriously. It sounds like you are low. 15-20 is too many, and that jack may not be safe.

yeah, going under a car with no stands = dumb.. i know a guy who had part of the car go through his head and into his brain. no one was home, he was stuck like that til his dad came home. he survived, barely. and could never walk or talk right again.
