Have you ever needed to do, or complete a "JOB" under the car without needing a garage to do it for you? AND if you don't have any ramps or axle stands?

Here is my Kwik Fix... (Never Kwik Fit)
Get two good friends and a Mattress! Oh, and just remove the door mirror !!
One, Two, Three... Tip it on its side, onto the mattress.... Trust me LOL.
Don't worry about oil/water spillage, thats just gravity and it won't be much...
I have changed many Ford Transit gearboxes, and others, using this primitive action... But, it worked every time... :P

Just another way to deal with under-car issues :D :)
