Default Question for JackPoint jack stand owners
I'm interested in buying a set of 4 for my 993. I'm curious if there's sufficient room for someone to get all the way underneath the car?

Interested in some first hand experiences...

Thanks

I dont own them but have worked on cars with them.

Yes you can but it is not easy to work under.

I have a set and it is low but I was able to get my Golden Rod in with out any issues. I normally use them on the front and then put my Esco ones in the back a bit higher.

Those are cool. Can you share the price? It's not listed on the website.

They are $265 a pair. Little pricey but they really get the car up there

Yes, they are pricey alright. But I can see where they would really be handy and safe. Jack stands are often just too precarious when there aren't solid places to put them.
