Abstract
The mechanic's creeper has a lower body support, an upper body support and dual wheel assemblies mounted to the frame in a triangular array. The triangular positioning of the dual wheel assemblies provides for exceptional mobility when a person is working in a reclined position underneath a motor vehicle. The mechanic's creeper may have trays for holding small tools and parts attached to the frame near the lower body support.
