O sh*t!

the dude that i was getting my air ride from ran into a few problems.....
the cable broke on the lift.....

this is his truck on level ground...

 

[Effeckt]

WOW! I am happy for your sake that his truck and not yours was on there when it happened. That would have sucked.

 

[99COOP]

that sucks, damage pics ?

 

[DarkTahoe00]

WOW! I hope the that place has pays for the damage! Man I'd be ****'N IRATE and trying to hurt someone, If that had been me. Hope it all works out for the both of you! Keep us posted.

 

[NathanJax]

windex will fix it right up... no worries...


On a serious note, the 06 silverado front end is a nice custom touch. I guess he has a custom "touch" on the left side of his truck now too... along with whatever they messed up underneath.

 

[Young28]

is he over on gmfs? If thats the guy i think it is hes a cool ass dude. hope it didnt mess up the truck to bad.

Im assuming that was on the way down. Well atleast on my lift when your going up blocks fall into place to stop that from happening.

"sorry sir, but a 6 thousand pound suv fell on top of your Bonneville while neither of them were driving"

 

[ecordell]

Yea that lift should have had "safety" measures in place. I'd have to say I'd probably have knocked the guy out when he told me my truck fell on the lift. Especially when it's that nice of a truck

 

[BlackDenali]

Holy......................

How can that happen? Like Trick said every lift I've ever been around as the lift moves you here a clunk every 6 or so inches because for lack of a better word "safty blocks" automatically drop into place to prevent this from happening.

I would steer clear of that shop, either the lift is really old or the shop doesn't properly maintain it My $.02

 

[fatnlowtahoe504]

yea i think thats the only reason why it stopped was the safety blocks, but luckly all it did was bend the running board and put a small crease on the door, he said he was underneath it when it happened, i would have shit myself..

its his shop, so he will be paying for his own damage lol

Yea, I would have needed a fresh change, a stiff drink, and damn smoke after that one. Then I would have made sure noone had audio or pictures of me curled up in a little ball screaming like a girl.

the only reason i would see that happen is if it was coming down. You have to remove those blocks to let it down. but he was working under it so something ****** up big time.

[fatnlowtahoe504]

omg good thing no one got hurt.

 

[yukondoit]

Damn....
There was a guy in my town who died when the vehicle he was working on fell on him. He was the mechanic at a piece of crap used car lot. They couldn't even afford a lift, so I'm guessing they were using a jack. It was our paper sometime around spring time.

Yup. Damn I wouldn't know how to act when I get that call.

 

[Modded]

If that was my truck I would shit.......
Not cool, and def. not easy to fix....

 

[fatnlowtahoe504]

yea i would have shit all in my pants and passed out, but yea he got some crazy rednecks to use a towtruck and some other equipment to get it down

 

[rigo_jones]

damn i always fear this. but last time i saw a lift it had locks, it made this clicking noise when it was going up. anyways this sucks big time hope shop pays for it, a good chance to get custom paint.
