Re: WORST INSTALL THREAD.
2 funny stories not directly involving me
Spindrift187 (jake) decided one time to put AGX's and Springs on his 240. after he got the shocks off he thought he needed mounts and started unbolting them from the stock spring/shock. no compressor as soon as i turn to tell him BAM umptten some punds of force explode into his chest.
wytr1ce (dan)- takin the j30 diff out of the rear of his 240. i get up to go grab something to drink come back with him doing the owie dance in the front yard. apparently he got it out of the carrier but it fell straight to the ground pinning his hand to the concrete and smashing the shit out of it.

Re: WORST INSTALL THREAD.
Adjusting the rear toe on a CR-V. POS Harbor Freight 17mm Wrench broke and a piece hit me in the mouth sheering the top of one of my teeth.
A root canal and crown later.
Point of story, don't use Harbor Freight wrenches lol

Re: WORST INSTALL THREAD.
installing a "simple" d series into one of my civics with only two jacks and it was bitter cold. Only could work in the dirt and grass and the morning dew made one of the jacks shift and I found a fully assembled motor on my shoulder. I was pinned for 30 minutes because I was home alone and had to wait for my friend to come over to lift it off. I was way to embarrassed to call 911. I have so many stories its not even funny but this had to be the most painfull.
