Somebody up there likes him!Wonder if his mate touched any controls?:naughty:doh
 
Just imagine trying to get that upright again inside that diddy workshop :doh

Indeed that will be fun. I'd unbolt the lift and drag the whole lot out with a proper 4x4 like maybe a trol :lol
My son works in a garage and he's had to virtually rebuild body mounts on a two year old Navara. Many other "trucks" are also made of tin foil it seems and just can't take the pace round these country piles :augie
Truck could have been over weight for the lift . Lift mounted badly. Deadlocks not engaged :nenau
Still, worse things happen at see :cool:
 
Not in the same dangerous vien, but 4x4's and lifts......visited my old UK garage a few weeks back, just for the craic.
In the workshop on their huge 4 post lift, was a newish RangeRover.......body.......the whole of the rest of the car.......chassis axles wheels gbox.......and the biggest engine block in a car I've ever seen, out of the chassis, and a radiator the size of a football field was on the deck under it.
The point being that to get at any thing on the engine, you have to lift the whole body off these things!
And this thing needed a new engine..........£7000.00+..........estimated total repair cost.........£13000.00+...........brain numbing.........:eek:

So he had one of the more reliable Range Rovers, otherwise he could have expected more bills.:doh
Why do people buy these things...:nenau
They probably don't look into ownership costs, some people don't need too...:augie
It probably only does 10 -15 mpg on a good run, so who cares?:augie
On a good point, while it's there it's not polluting the environment, or taking up space on the rear of a relay truck...:lol:lol
 
I recon the guy who came in pushed it or tried to move it on the lift, for that to suddenly drop like that. My local garage has one of those, as well as a 4 poster. I don't go under vehicles on the hydraulic lift, they don't look safe.
