    Park over a ditch or on a slight hill and you get lots of crush proof space.
    Generally if you are under the car, put chockes on the wheels, put stands or blocks under the frame and baring an attack of the stupid you will be fine.

    Using safety equipment usually is. Relying on an air bag to stay in 1 place is foolish, if not deadly. AS you already know.

    I have jack stands, of course, for working on my Jeep and cars. But a 20 ton RV? I don't trust these for that. Much heavier duty stuff is needed.

    As for that mechanic who almost killed himself, he was working on the air system when that happened. Talk about foolish.

    Perhaps some reading/responding need clarification that this is a Class A Diesel pusher, not some lightweight trailer/fiver.

    Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
    Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
