Jack stand ideas

I had thought about cribbing it up. My cousin owns a small mill and I had thought about solid 10” x 10” x 27” pieces with a notch in the top. 

 

I went and looked at harbor freight  jackstands, they are not bad. $100 a piece is the only thing stopping me.

That's a pretty good deal. 

Yeah, I bought a pair some months back to work on my Tundra and they seem well made and had pretty good reviews. I like the double locking pin for added safety, or at least I feel safer when under the truck. I plan on buying a couple more pairs to work on the Comanche.

I have 4 of these big red ones. Pipe jacks for welding pipe. They go from about 24” up to about 3 feet. The nice thing about them is the screw jack end makes them very adjustable. Especially when you are trying to level something out.  I also have 3 pair of the hf style 6 ton jack stands. They get the most use.

I’ve learned that jack stands are like clamps. You can’t have to many

You are correct on that one. I have 4 small, 6 6 ton normal jack stands, and 6 pipe jacks at least. 

don't get me started on clamps and magnets. But I’ve been collecting them for over 40 years. You never complain that you have too many but I hate being short.
