I have a pair, love them. I had a devil of a time getting the rears on jackstands, these make it super easy. Before I got these, I would sometimes bleed the brakes just on the jack (esp the rears, see previous sentence), these make it so easy, I always use them now when I'm changing wheels or bleeding the brakes.

There is a much bigger thread discussing them here

These stands are awesome. Pricey but IMHO worth it. Would like to save my pennies and get a second pair.

No no - you drop shipped a set to TPD along with EVERYTHING else in that rig and forgot about it. Then when you picked up thought - wow! Free jackstands!

Oh, wait... you're right! My bad!!!


BTW: DRL, fantastic avatar photo you got there. I love how the trailer is the primary focus of the shot. Shows your priorities are straight!

Thanks KBC993 and Rennlisters who have supported Jackpoint Jackstands. Shooting the video and spending the day at Jay's garage was mind blowing. He's a real car guy (and a really nice guy) and his hands on approach to his cars is something Rennlisters would really appreciate.
