Jim Warman Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I find that, at my age and in my <errrrrrrmmmm> "condition", that there are more vehicles I don't fit under than vehicles I do fit under - creeper not-with-standing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 That's a pretty slick outfit. Would be really good for doing brakes on a big truck, sitting down to assemble the brakes and put the drum on, and then slide underneath to grease the camshafts and slacks and set the brakes up. I didn't watch the whole video because I couldn't handle the music, but what kinda money, or is it just a one-off that someone built?

Bruce Amacker Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 You need liability insurance on a product and the ins. cos. will run when they see this. If the switch sticks, or gets bumped, or is pushed while you're under a car, instant crushed skull and death or disabling injury. It will never make it to market.....

As much fun as this stupid thing looks I am getting to the point where I am just tired of climbing up and down on trucks and crawling under them. I can fit under trucks. I can't fit under running boards. Originally Posted By: Bruce Amacker You need liability insurance on a product and the ins. cos. will run when they see this.

I am guessing you are probably right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DwayneGorniak Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 The Mac Tools product team actually looked into this unit and producing it. They didn't say what the cost was, but they did say that it was far too expensive to even consider. And if they say that, trust me it's worth a a pretty penny. Do you folks think the average tech would consider this product? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in the good old U. S. of A. the land of litigation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
