The Sears stands look like they may have been made by this company: http://www.safetjack.com/

Wow, I didn't know something like that existed! I have a stack of sketches somewhere for an idea like this when I was doodling one day. Very cool.

I also didn't know about Carl's jack points. I may have to pick up some of those for the race car.

I personally just bought a large all steel floor jack the lifts from 4" - 21" and four 6 ton jack stands with a max height of 23.5". I don't know how I lived with my mickey mouse $hit before this, car is nice and high to work on and goes up quickly and safely. Everything cost me around $250, money well spent.

I like the concept of the jack stand and jack combo, but looks a bit too complicated and doesn't go high enough for my taste.

I believe you could potentially jump the car as well. I believe that is how it works on the powerful Mach 5.
