Default New Sears Craftsman Jack System

I got the Sears Craftsman Club flyer and there is this new jack system. It looks like a bottle jack / jack stand all in one. I just wonder how much extra jack stands are to get all four wheels off the ground. It doesn't list the how low profile it is.

I saw a sears jack that had a laser guide that would help to align the jack under the jack point. I thought that was a cool idea.

If that allows jacking and placing a jack stand under one point, that would be brilliant for 993s.

Yup, so the question is how much are 3 more jack stands to get all 4 wheels up. At least 2 to get the front wheels up.

Some more info to share with you.
The package comes with two "stands"

Extend to 17 inch and minimum height is 6.5 inch, which is about an inch too tall for my SUV height's

You could always 'start' the car up with your existing jack and then go with the Sears system???

The problem is we only have 4 small jack point areas, and is the exact place where thee jack stands need to go. You can't really swap the jack and the stand in nano-second !
