Nice build so far. Keep it up! You do know that you'll never be done with it, though, right?

Best of luck fellow Squad homie.

Go to sleep fooo!

I saw you and I kept honking. But I guess you didn't hear it, so I waited to drive by to honk and wave. Hahaha.

I got some parts for my car..

One is turbo for my D for fun, while I build my new swap.

LMAO @ the guy in the Escort or Mercury flashing his hazards at you.

Car looks good.

At first I thought you were a guy and was like, "why does he keep posting pics of his gf working on his car?" haha.

I went back and looked again and what's really bad is how she jacked it up on the front bumper where there is really no support for the jack.

At least use the designated 'jacking spots' behind the front wheels and in front of the rear wheels if you aren't going to use jackstands.

Believe me, it won't be fun if/when that thing falls off the jack.

well, it looks like she has it on the driver's side tow hook so that's actually not that bad of a spot and I think (although im totally not sure at the moment) the helms manual says thats actually a kosher lifting point... not for a hoist obviously, but for a jack it's apparently cool. I remember a huge Honda Tech bitch fight a while ago about this... i'm just too lazy to search.

I'd rather use the factory screw jack than that Walmart-styles jack... i have a jack just like that at home, its totally bent and messed up from my use. its only rated at like 2000 pounds, i suppose i abused it a little... but ill never trust it again, abuse or not... its not safe and should be feared.

Thanks you guys.
I have a few surprises up my sleeves, with the help of my friends of course.

And thanks for all the concerns using the jackstands.
I UNDERSTAND ITS NOT SAFE. Now quit bugging.
