X2 on this one, works great.

I bought a Topside creeper a few years ago.....money well spent...it makes working over the top much easier, especially if you have to work at the back of the engine...

Great point. Speaking for myself, sometimes I get locked in on one perspective (UP) when down is a better option. Especially for something you don't want scratched.

I've always used a sprinkler valve box, just because it's what's available. They work pretty well, especially the 21x15x12.

I usually use a small step stool, but have had it slip out from under me when reaching to the back of the engine compartment

Mike.

I have one similar to this, love the heck out of it. Folds up nicely and is a metal traction steps. Easy to adjust and use. I use it all the time.... love it.
