I actually had a 3 ton jack from Harbor freight fail on me and the jack stands saved the day. Thankfully, I wasn't under the car at the time. I use ramps too, for stuff like what you're saying. Reactions: GO-NAD!

Just a thought.... maybe drive up ramps may be an option.

I thought they were just a good time. I went to see the dentist and now my knees don't hurt. Seems like a good time to check out used gear. Where is that CC? Reactions: fuzz092888

No refurbs for me. I'd rather buy a used local product that works at a reduced price. It's not that I'm scared of paying for return shipping on a defective product and it's not that I'm afraid of wasting all that time hooking up gear, trouble shooting it and packing it back up for a drive to UPS. It's not the hours wasted on emails and it's not being without a system for a month at a clip. It's the brief instant that my impotent rage would give anything to rip the face off the f^%&nut that thought selling me their broke sh!t was a good idea. I can't go through that. As soon as 4K and apple mind control take hold, those 4311 dinosaurs will be popping up for short money.

Any money you don't spend in there is free money to put toward something that is worth owning. If you want to live with garbage, get a banana peel and sleep with it next to you on your pillow for a couple of nights. Sears has nice little jack and stand combo's in plastic cases for easy storage/portability which count for a lot. As a condo dweller I don't have room for that stuff but I maintain close relationships with people like Greg, who do have that kind of space. Reactions: Rickster71

One common mistake is to use the jack to hold up the car the entire time and using the stands under the car as a safety precaution if the jack fails. That's wrong. Use the jack only to lift and lower the car; let the stands support the weight of the car. Get stands that are tall enough if you happen to be raising a 4WD truck with more ground clearance. You don't want to use small stands set at their max height. Reactions: GO-NAD! and Alex2507
