Let me clarify. If you put a gun to my head I’d much rather be working on or underneath a vehicle that’s on a sole scissor jack versus a sole hydraulic jack. This is due to the possibility of a hydraulic floor jack losing its seal and dropping the car by a number of different means. The scissor jack is not going to unscrew itself in any situation. Having said that, I personally wouldn’t use a sole scissor jack or a floor jack to hold my vehicle in place while I’m working on it. No matter what I’m doing I’ll jack it up and place it on the jack stand. I’m too old to get crushed by a car! I’ll leave that for the young kids!! Lol
