Recommended jack stands?

[Midnight LJR]

Ok since since all 8 of my harbor freight jack stands have been recalled I decided it’s time to quit being silly and by quality ones.

Can someone recommend a quality brand/type?

Considering that all 8 would have to fail at the same time, I think I would just keep using them.

I use UniJack. I have two. I could use more! They are a little slow, but they are safe. Only about $60/each. They are small enough to take on the trail if you don't want to depend on the stocker

We use the Napa Auto brand at work. If they can hold up a Kenworth water truck, I think they can pass muster.

I've got some duralast 4&6tons. I like them okay. They were on sale at AutoZone.

If I were in the market for new ones, I like those screw type jackstands that I always see on carshows n stuff.

I have one set of Torin big red 6ton (pep boys) and a set of Astroline 6ton (don’t think those are made anymore).

I have had them for a long minute now and also use them on a 3/4 ton diesel. Been good stands.

In my opinion if you want the best get some Hein Werner 6tons. I would like a set but no reason to replace equipment that is working.

I bought four 6 ton jack stands from US Jack years ago.

Lincoln manufactures NAPA lifting equipment. We used the same thing at work. Good quality. Not cheap though.

That size is made by Esco for NAPA. I have a friend in Texas that has those. Good stuff. Shop around for that size in the Esco brand and you can probably save a few dollars.

I also use UniJack, they are good enough for me.
