Here we go again. I jacked up the driver side of the truck first because it was on the slop and the other bottle jack was buried underneath the front end. You can see the depression in the ground in the first photograph. The much needed bottle jack I unearthed was damaged. There is a break and a big dent in the side. When I sat it upright fluid began pouring out. Can I weld up the break in the house, replace the lost fluid, and use it again? Or is it now scrap? I really need that jack. Once I got the driver side stable enough to begin working on the passenger side I switched everything over. I was not trying to get it to work height just yet; I just wanted it out of the dirt so I can get the jack under it. Well, I started jacking up the other side when guess what. The son of a bitch slid sideways off the jack and jack stand again. Luckily I was not under it this time nor was I on the side it fell to. But wait, there is more. I pulled out the crappy engine hoist my wife bought from a friend of hers that was PCS’ing while I was in Iraq. I was going to try and get it high enough to swing it over. I sold the good one I had because it was sitting and taking up room. Well damn, the cylinder will not build pressure and it is worthless.
