Had to take my HF death stands back due to a recall..........cant seem to find anything local that isnt made in china. Looking for pin type, dont even want to mess with the rachet types unless they are US made.

Any one have and old set laying around that you want to get rid of .........

Seems anything new is on back order

Would like 6 ton

Thanks

I got tired of looking for quality, high rise stands, so I built my own about 8 years ago. 24 inches collapsed, to 48 inches fully extended. These were more for working on trucks than cars, but I could scale them down for car use if I ever thought about making lower rise ones

For car use I have an abundance of 6X6 timber blocks I use to place under the wheels. I've been doing this long enough that I have 4 pair of old regular ratchet type stands. if I need the wheels hanging to do suspension work, etc.

Someday before I die I may get a garage tall enough for a lift. Yesterday the wife and I just talked about why are we spending just under $100 a month to rent a 10X10 storage unit when that payment could be going to a pole building instead.

I had a 30X40 building with 10 foot doors in it before I got divorced in 2001, but of course the house had to be sold to split the proceeds of the marriage.......
