[SEL] sorta O/T but safety related and bizarre

My question is who takes a picture of jacking up the family car to put 
shocks on it?

I've NEVER taken a picture of the oil pan drain plug on my F150 when I 
change the oil.    Maybe I should start, just in case something wierd 
happens that I can share on the list?

All kidding aside that was good to find this out now instead of while 
driving down the road and your trailer passes you in the left lane!
