I was the one that took the photo, the other fella holding the crowbar was my assistant.

The radiator won’t be going in today, but you gotta start somewhere, and a partly wrecked front end surely wasn’t getting it…

      No no, it only gets interesting when you mess up and let the crowbar go…

      Please don’t ban me officer 🥺

        My man needs a tirfor jack or a mechanical winch. Of course, the dull gentleman uses the tools at hand though.

        You can skip the part where someone gets a crowbar in the face, trip to the ER, 24 stitches and other exciting events like that. Just tell us what the weather was like when you went to buy your 5th pack of painkillers.

          LOL, I definitely had my concerns as well, hence the need for an assistant. When I took the photo, there wasn’t much stress on the chain and crowbar, we had already bent that top support rail back out almost perfectly straight, so I could let go for a bit to take a couple photos before unwinding it.

      Yes, this looks very sus. Maybe dull for a 40 yo mechanic, but not so much for a 20 yo office clerk.
