Anyone need help over the long winter with their 86?
I will come help out if you want a newbie to give you an extra hand.
I just want to learn some basic mechanic skills since I almosted killed myself with the car falling near me, and I even got shock by the battery today.

So if you need a hand with ripping apart your car, body work, and engine, electronic work, give me a holla HOMIES

Peace Yo Yo YO!

Yeah, I had a cheap Jack with a small pad, and I jacked the wrong spot under the car. The jack slipped and fell.

i almost had the car fall on me too, when I was changing a tire, my friend put the flat in the back of the car, upseting the car and it almost crushed my hands!

please try and not do that again! :evil: put the car on jack stands ... and after you've done that, jump on your car a few times to makes sure it's not going anywhere ...

TIP:
my dad always told me to put the flat tire UNDER the side of the car.. so JUST INCASE the jack fails, theres the steelie to hold up the car..

[mr_sinister]

good tip.. but yeah, jack stands, its all about the jack stands

arthur, are you driving your 86 in the winter?

you kinda picked a bad time, i think most 86 guys around here put their hobby on hold during this time of year

Randy,

I was planning to remove the bumpers and fix those rusts near the rears of the car. I have jacks, forgot to use them

So, anyone need a helping hand? I promise I won't get you injured during the process.
