Was doing a 2013 Ford escape rear upper control arms. No room for a ratchet or a air ratchet. Swivels bent perfectly around the rear sub frame and in between the gas tank.

This is the transmission. It was recently purchased (no plates yet). Customer stated he got it for cheap due to a shifting problem. Took a look and the previous owner had tried to stop a leak with expanding foam.

There were a few good animal posts this week ( mouse in a brake caliper , nest of baby rats ), but this one takes the cake. Oh, and I believe a NSFW warning is in order...

not quite as bad as using a floor scrubber to clean up a gas spill.

and those tire ones still make me twitch. Worse than the “customer” being dumb enough to drive a mile or more on a completely flat tire to get here is the fact that they almost always got pissed (at me!) when I told them it couldn’t be fixed.
