It helps to keep in mind that any time you are under a car that has been lifted with a 'Harbor Freight Type' floor jack you are trusting your life to a ten-cent Chinese O-ring in the hydraulic circuit. This alone should keep you from being there in the first place. Take time to learn where and how to place your jack stands without going under the car and don't be afraid of redundancy. NEVER allow expedience to cause you to take a short cut with safety.
