Um ok i just was on honda-tech. Theres a thread on "dont you think honda jacks are hard to use"

one guy commented.."yes they are, 1/2 turn, take out the rod, 1/2 turn"

everyone agreed with him.

ok? well, i dont know where to start..but PLEASE tell me TCC members are more educated on "how to use a honda jack"


a lot of my friends still havent figured out the secret to them, and theyre giving out car advice..

Cynikal.Mindset

u use the tire iron part like a handle and crank away like on a pulley...super easy to use


basically u hold the skinny (hubcap remover)...part that attatches to the jack...then hook up the wrench part to the skinny part and then it forms a handle and crank...voila!

imported_~ILLEST CIV~

I love my OEM scissor jack! Its truly a brilliant and very effective design.

imported_climax

i had to use it once.. i found it easy to use the first time

yO

It's what I use to change from steelies to rims! (You get tired though)

imported_1PhatCX

i couldnt use the honda one so i had to get an acura one... lol

how can u not know how to use them?

imported_SaYjAiBaO

i just use my hydraulic jack .

imported_1PhatCX

do u carry it with u incase something happens on the side of the road?

imported_S@URN

I have never used one but just by looking at it I could figure it out. I don't have a spare so the jack ain't much help ha ha.

imported_1PhatCX

lol my car was the other way around, had a spare but no jack, still useless unless i called for a tow truck to jack it up lol
then i bought a wrecked teg and stole that one hehe

imported_complex

yea its pretty basic! I dont see why they find it so hard?

imported_1PhatCX

because there from honda "TECH"... they look at technical aspects and make it more complicated then it is..
time for bed, i'm beat

imported_kIeRaN

haha, i saw that thread on honda tech too, there was one guy that ended up telling how to do it the rite way. anyhow, my buddy thought u have to do it have a turn at a time because his car didnt come with the hook part

stock94block

hehe that was me..."GSRconvert".....this is a good example of why you shouldnt listen to everyone on forums


except TCC

Nova_Dust

It doesn't work all that easy with a lowered car, because the iron bar will hit the ground so you have to crank it on an angle, which makes it a little uncomfortable. But still, easy to use.

imported_ERTW

simple things like tire changing and checking of oil should be part of your driving test

yeah, my old car didnt' come with the hook part and i was like why is this so dumb? but then when i got the new one and it had the hook included it realized it was genious. Way better than GM jacks, or atleast from what i know, maybe they've revamped them...

go HONDA !
