+1...that's exactly what it sounds like. And, sometimes s#!t happens. Rubber mallet will do the trick. Anyone else saying that this guy doesn't know what he's doing, hasn't played around in their garage long enough to know that a hydraulic jack can/will let go at times. That's why you should never be under the car with just a hydraulic jack...you need the jack stand which won't fail.

my hydrolic failed with my 5500lbs truck over me luckaly there was clearance for me to not get pinned.

 

use a four by four and a big hammer

 

Ya I use wood to block my car and a jackstand before I get under, better safe than sorry. Honestly it will only take you 2 min extra and you know that you will be safe. Glad he is ok. A dent in the floor is minor in the grand scheme of things.

 

Thats why I built my own ramps! But in this case, it wouldn't of helped because you can't rotate tires on ramps

 

I don't see why you couldn't take the extra 3 seconds and put it in the right spot, but use a rubber hammer!

 

this is only tangentially related, but since we are on the topic of getting under the cars or lifting them up(in this case) - what ramps are you guys using. Will an X clear Rhino ramps?

 

hope you get it fixed, shouldnt be too bad.

 

nope.

 

 

^^^^^

 

Doesnt the dealer offer free balance and rotation???

 

Opps....I meant "were not"

 

Check the undercoating for cracks/damage and touch up.

 

A rubber mallet should level out the bump.
