    as long as hindi gagalaw ung kotse (parking brake, wheel chocks) safe gamitin ung jack

    ilan minuto lang naman mag palit ng gulong

    kung magpapalit ng brake pads, suspension parts dun gagamitin ang jack stand

    very useful, especially when the surface in question is not perfectly flat.
    Toyota included a folding metal wheel chock as part of the toolkit back in the day. If it's still being included, it's probably on selected cars only.

    2 days ago kasi when I first tried to use the torque wrench. I tried to turn it until it can freely run. Kala ko same as torque screw driver. When you use a torque screw driver and it reaches let's say 50 kn.meter torque. Ma turn na freely yun screw driver. Pero hindi pala ganun yun torque wrench. So baka na over tighten ko tire nuts.

    Also ang nangyari is nag move yun car when using the torque wrench. So I was worried

    1. Baka na over tighten ko 2 days ago the nuts to say 180 kn. meter. (120 kn.meter ang nasa manual).

    2. Second is if I'd change the tire to reserva. Worried baka ma tangal yun jack. so want to know if necessary ang jack stand.

    3. I have to loan money just to buy the 4 tires. I'm broke na because of the pandemic. Wala business for 6 months. Have to pay pa madami unpaid loans. Tapus padating pa Omicron na ito. Hay.

    4. Lastly, bukas if the technician at any tire service center will use impact wrench either on 2nd pasak repair or installation of 4 new tires. It will take me effort to tell him to use my torque wrench. So I have to know exactly ano torques ng hydraulic impact wrench so have the reasons and justification to confront any technician/vulganizer. I tried to google yesterday pero wala ako mahanap na exact torque of the impact wrench. Hence I posted again today to ask some critical information before tomorrow.

    forgiveness, but...
    sounds like kags.
    kahit anong suggestion from others,
    may counter-sagot.

    in my more than 30 years of car ownership and self-maintenance and repair,
    i have never used a torque wretch on my wheels.
    and never has any of them fallen off or died or fractured from over-tightening.

    well, once...
    i forgot to tighten my wheel after replacing it.
    after a few meters... "what is that funny sound...?"
    heh heh.

    doc, na-sense mo rin pala yung "kags vibe"?

    only thing is, it seems they're antithesis of each other - one having lots of questions, the other having all the answers, and then some.

    cool!
    none of our toyotas has that gadget.
    i wonder, is it available for sale in the casa?

    maganda yung nakikita sa movies na ginagamit sa small plane...
    two pieces of chucks, joined to each other by a short length of stout rope. one pull and both chucks are off.

    lifting a car, an alligator jack is much easier to use than a scissors jack or a bottle jack, provided it fits your working situation.
    by all means, buy one if you wish.
    bili ka na rin ng jack stands, if your car intends to get jacked up for considerable lengths of time.
