Re: 1984 c10 barn find
On Thursday I learned a lesson about safety the hard way. I was working under my 3/4 ton truck when it fell off the jacks and pinned me under the frame. The frame wasn't touching the ground, the full weight of that corner of the truck was on me. The neighbors babysitter heard me yelling and got my fiance, Emily, out of the house. She jacked it up enough for me to get out. Things could've been alot worse, and I'm very very lucky to have walked away from that. I've got lots of pulled muscles and bruises, and some pinched nerves, but nothing permanent or broken. Keep in mind everyone, you never think it'll happen to you, but it can. Always take a minute to think about what you're doing when you get under a car. We all do it so often, we tend to forget just how dangerous it really is. Have fun, and be safe!
