Default Jackpoint jackstands
Picking up my newly refinished hollow spokes tomorrow and used the Jackpoint Jackstands that I acquired with the car. Worked flawlessly. What a great design.

The design just makes sense, cool. Do you jack front then back or sides?

very cool.
Price??


Edit:
$299 a pair, pretty pricey but really like the concept of lifting once and being done with it.
I'm looking for jackstands, is 12 inch lift really enough to get under the car to do basic maintenance?

These cars are easy enough to lift that I don't see huge appeal for this product, but I'm glad you like them.

I've got a set as well... I've done oil changes (transmission and engine) and replaced the shifter assembly no problems at all.

Nice, just in pics 1,3 & 5, your legs are on the edge of concrete seam. I'd avoid that.

Very nice:

The only downside it that the height is not adjustable.

OK, nice, to be sure. But that is serious coin for a jackstand, IMHO.
