Safe Jack stands?
Safe Jack stands?
I am looking to replace my death trap Jack stands that I trust enough when I am not under the car.
I am not looking to break the bank. However, if my car falls on me, I would probably be dead before anyone found me. Some suggestions will be helpful as I am currently using bricks.Thanks in advance for your time.

Most traditional 4 legged stands with locking cams are safe enough. If you don't trust that, get ones that lock the height with a pin.
Most of the danger is from the stability at full height.

Thanks, I watched the other one, too. It is between The Big Red and the Husky. The top piece has a deeper or a more shallow curve from one to the next, as far as I can tell. I think the deeper one would be better? Maybe add a pad of some sort of padding for using it on uni-body reinforcement rails? I like these stands on the front lower controls arm mounting points because of the curved nature of the part. I am a bit nervous putting something like these in the reinforcement rails as it could be easy to slip off?
