20 Best Jack Stands For Lifted Trucks (2022 Updated)

A careful examination reveals continuous welding beads along the full length of the stamped metal seams, done on the inside of the stand. This is harder to do than welding the outside seam. So it indicates someone in the Torin Group thought about the quality aspect at some point.

In addition, the welding bead is smooth and continuous without pits or evidence of grinding/rework to hide welding glitches. This indicates fabricator skill. Now these beads may very well have been done by a CNC Welding Robot, and that’s even better for quality.

The only questionable aspect is that one person says the stands are rated for 6,000 pounds only when both are employed on the same load, and another written advice says the stands are rated at 6,000 pounds each.

If we afford a derated figure to these pieces then a Better Rating at 3,000 pounds per stand is acceptable, but then the pieces become pricey, as many competitors fall in a high quality curve at 3,000 pounds.

I bought two of these jack stands in order to do major work on my 2013 Ford Taurus SHO. The jack stands worked great and easily held the weight of the 4,500 lbs. automobile. Compared to other brands with the same weight capacity, there is no reason to spend 3 or 4 times as much when these jack stands do the job.

I recommend them to anyone in need of 2 ton jack stands. Note – Don’t do your work in an asphalt parking lot. The jack stands were slowly sinking into the asphalt under the weight of the vehicle.

We picked these up for an urgent situation, since they get better reviews than those at big box stores. Worked great. Adequately robust construction. Perfectly OK for passenger cars. Be sure to lube moving parts and wipe down frame to prevent corrosion.

However, for the price, they should have a wider base for safety AND should be constructed to support 3 tons each. The, it would be an excellent 5 star product.

I struggled to choose a rating here. I received these and took them home to use. One worked just fine, the other I could not get the locking pin to go all the way through, no matter how hard I tried.

It seemed like the teeth on the saddle were not perfectly aligned with the holes for the locking pin which pushed the pin upwards just enough that it would go through one hole but not be able to pop out the other side.

Took it back to do an exchange and I am getting ready to pick up the replacements so we will see how this new set does.

When the Harbor Freight stands got recalled, it brought to light the defect extended to many manufactures. The upper part that has the jagged edges were improperly made. This model, at this time, seems to be fine.

I was unable to find the old fashioned jack stands I had forty years ago, so I bought these to use for occasional use and to back up the floor jack when I get under a vehicle. The yellow color is good for safety, as it catches the eye.

In my opinion, I would not trust just these jack stands if you are under a vehicle. Always have a secondary device just in case something fails.

Typical Jacks. Just be careful with which car you use them on. The contact points are a deep V. So it may not fit some sedans real well since you Jack them up on the unibody rocker panels vs axles typically.

Will work really well on pick-up trucks and SUV axles.

I like these. They are heavier duty than the old HBF stands. They have several notches along the top of the stand that allows my pinchweld to sit in it and not try to fold it under. Nice product.

These are excellent jack stands, and the construction and finish are very high quality. Note that the saddle on these stands is flat and relatively narrow, measuring 2 inches by 2-1/4 inches. The flat area between the rounded lips of the saddle measures 2 inches long by 1-1/4 inch wide.

This is perfect for my needs, but the size and shape is very different than the usual deep V-shape found on other jack stands. In use these stands are very stable and solid, and at just five pounds each theyre very easy to maneuver and set up.

The adjustable aluminum tube in the outer aluminum cylinder fits with a very close tolerance, and the locking pin features a ball bearing safety to prevent the pin slipping out.

For just working in your garage, these dont offer anything you can get in jack standa that cost 1/3 as much. However, if you need something that you can pack away in a vehicle (i. e. Overland and Offroading rigs), there aren’t any better options without spending $300+ on boutique collapsable jack kits.

If you dont put the screw in the bottom of the stand, the post simple slides in and out of the base. I keep these in my vehicle so if I need to work on it on the trail, I can jack it up with my hi-lift, and use the stands to safely stabilize my rig.

I would highly recommend these for anyone with a vehicle that may require jacking for anything beyond roadside tire repair.

I was totally upset with this purchase. It was a Christmas gift for my grandson. The box arrived over a week after it was suppose to be here. The box was in such bad shape. It was torn on every end and corner, and taped, but still unsightly.

Wonderful condition for a gift.

First off is these jacks are BIG. I mean like crazy BIG and built like a tank! When I opened them up and just saw the size of the retaining pin I was laughing for like 5 minutes. Everything about these felt like a joke because of how huge everything is.

Look at the size comparison compared to small 2 ton jack stands and what I would call a large 6 ton jack stand. They are not even in the same league. In my picture there is a full size shovel to give you a idea of just how tall these things go.

I used these to work on my Dodge Ram 2500 that has a 6″ lift with long travel leaf springs. There is so much leaf spring travel that you have to jack the truck up to a crazy height to get the pressure off the springs.

The Dodge frame is curved just in front of the rear tires so you cant place a jack there, at least safely in my opinion. That’s where these very tall jacks come in. I placed them on the rear section of the frame which is a good deal higher up than the rest of the trucks frame.

I had to get these jacks around 42″ in height to get my truck off the ground with enough clearance to droop the leaf springs and not have the 37″ tires still on the ground. Without these jacks I would have had to use a redneck very unsafe method to try this.

With these jacks I am 100% confident that nothing will happen.

I have a Tundra that I like doing my own maintenance on. I had bought a set of cheap jack stands for this work and never felt 100% safe under the truck with them and figured is my life worth 200 bucks.

These stands are no joke. Solid and stable on my concrete garage floor. I think I could place these under a dump truck and feel safe. I had to laugh when UPS dropped them off and the box was shredded because how do you ship a set of heavy duty jack stands in a cardboard box and I read the reviews about the box being in bad shape.

It did hold together enough to keep everything together though.

Holy cow. No worries about these collapsing on you! These are super heavy and the finish on them is really nice. Be warned though, they are very heavy jack stands compared to any others I’ve totes easily around the shop.

I was looking for an upgrade to some old jack stands which didn’t leave me much confidence. I had purchased some OEM-Tool products before after seeing them on TV. Was really glad to see Summit carry them, they have become my go to place for auto related tools and parts.

Very happy overall with everything from order process to OEM-till jack stands themselves. They were a little more than some of the other Made in China stands, but very happy with overall quality. Def heavier than the ones they replace.

We already had to use this product this past week and the jack stands work great. I felt very comfortable being under the car working on it without hesitation. I highly recommend these Jack stands for your garage.

I bought these originally just to get a larger jack stand that would support my lifted Jeep by the frame. What I didn’t expect was how massively stout these were. Solid construction, and quite stable.

I’m not sure why the email says JEGS 50th Anniversary Creeper & Seat since I purchased three ton jack stands. The JEGS 3 ton jack stands which I ordered shipped fast and arrived quickly. I have not had an opportunity to use them yet.

I unpacked them and found them to be solid and well made. I’m looking forward to using them.

Not built to last it was over painted so the groves was hard to move up and down. It just seems like it was made at Walmart with a kegs name slapped on it. My HarborFreight stands I trust more.

Love these jack stands. Can’t beat the price either. I’m gonna order another pair soon

Bought these for my 1500 Sierra CC. Well made and worked as it should. Supported entire front end of my truck while doing front disc brake upgrade. Solid working pair should last for years. Thanks Summit Racing.

This pair of stands holds up 3/4 ton square-body 4×4 ‘ burb no problem, as well as my other old Detroit iron; very stable.

Good jacks here, no problems and got the right hight I was looking for, bought 2 sets and so far very happy with product!

I love everything about these jack stands but the price, lol. There pricey but worth every penny. These are almost too well built, i had a bad experience with four 6 ton Harbor Freight recalled stands that started to split when i had my truck on them for a brake job.

I decided to not risk my life anymore to save a few bucks and bought these, there unbelievably well built and heavy. No more digging into my black top driveway or using wood boards the feet on these wont sink in and the locking pins are thicker than my finger.

BUY THESE they will last 2 lifetimes and you will never worry about getting killed while using them.

I have a lifted truck that is getting restored. Standard 6 ton height was not enough so I got these monsters. Big beefy stands, welds are sufficient but far from pretty. Not worried about them moving or failing.

First order from acme tools lowest price I found online. Shipping price was very cheap for such a heavy item. Also acme said it was on sale and took 20% off. I will need another pair in the future and I will order them here.

Very satisfied customer!.

Just received these these SUNEX-1310 medium height 10 ton jack stands purchased from ACME tools at a great price. Most other jack stands max out around the 20 or 24 inches in height when fully extended.

These Sunex -1310 medium height 10 ton jack stands have a range of approx 19 3/4 to 30 3/4 tall which will allow more space under the vehicle if needed. These are large and heavy and will take up more space to store when not in use but worth it if you want safe stands taller than the standard jack stands.

Features not found on other ratcheting jack stands of this type: 1) TWO simultaneous weight bearing elements instead of one: The lock engages a saw-tooth for weight-bearing simultaneously with the weight-bearing of the ratchet lever.

Each uses a separate saw-tooth for weight-bearing. For other stands, there is only one weight-bearing feature – the ratchet lever, and the lock engages a saw-tooth ONLY if the ratchet lever fails. 2) Lock positively prevents unlocking of ratchet lever – this feature not found on many other jack stand locks.

3) Lower triangular portion of stand is stronger because it has no holes like other jack stands. 4) Lower triangular portion of stand has lateral bars for added strength – this feature is not found on other jack stands.

5) All welded seams are evenly welded – high quality welds.

I like the attention to quality in the welds, the cross-bracing near the welds, and the double locking pin system. The locking pin really does fully engage one tooth on the anvil (not sure if that is the correct term).

I wish the surface that comes into contact were a bit wider or had a slot for lifting around a car’s pinch welds. I hope that they end up making a 6-ton version with a larger base soon. Also, given that their last two jack stands were recalled (one for a poorly designed tooth and pawl system and one for bad welds which failed under load), I would like to see the jack stands with a clear coating on them, to allow the buyer to inspect the welds.

They fully addressed the tooth and pawl system and then some. They also have what appear to be the best welds in their price point while adding redundancy with the extra plate below the seams. I would just like to know that the welds looked as good before the paint went on.

Although it doesn’t have the warranty I would like, I honestly don’t think I’ll need it. While I’d love to have the option just in case- and in my opinion a warranty gives me piece of mind that the company is backing their product- the product is very strong, well made (the welds look great), and I love all the extra safety features for added security.

Typically I don’t use Jack stands (even though I know it’s unwise and unsafe) but for this particular project I knew I needed them. I feel like I chose a great product and it’s doing everything it should and more.

I have no doubt or hesitation climbing underneath said project in question with these stands. The price is also great. I would highly recommend this product.

I bought these thinking they were more than tall enough for my 2019 Highlander but without the jack stand pads I bought (“YTOOS”, from Amazon), they would not have been high enough on their own to get the rear wheels off the ground.

I did not account for the suspension travel causing the wheels to drop down as the car is being lifted. It needs to be jacked-up quite a lot higher than you might think to overcome the suspension travel and get the wheels actually off the ground.

as I found out. YMMV.

These jack stands were a lot higher quality than I expected given the price. They have a locking pin and flat pieces welded to the legs so they don’t sink on asphalt. Also, the area where the pinch welds of the car sit are flat so you can use it on smaller cars, not just trucks.

Very happy with the purchase.

It’s not bad as a jack and I manage to work my way around it (lifting the wheel rather then the subframe like normal people do), but for this reason I don’t recommend it – get a bigger one, will save you a lot.

Almost impossible to use this one for trucks or any other higher vehicle. Could barely lift a Caravan.

After owning a set of the recalled Harbor Freight jack stands, I decided to research and find a better product. This jack stand is fairly expensive but not when you think about the fact that you are trusting your life with it.

It has a substantial pin and locking mechanism to prevent accidental collapse. The tripod design with large pads offer great stability and is less likely to sink into asphalt. I recommend ordering the flat post with rubber pad separately so you can use either the v shaped post for axels, or the flat pad for frames.

These are awesome jack stands. The center post is a solid rod, not another pipe. Heavy duty adjusting pin with a separate retaining pin. Removable rubber disk for when you need it or not. Foot pads so the legs don’t dig into blacktop or scratch concrete floors.

No more hauling around pieces of plywood. 13. 5 inch min to 22 inch max. These look/feel like a lifetime product.

These are the best jack stands ever. I own 3 pairs, 2 pairs with the round flat tops that I’ve been using for over a year, and 1 pair with these axle tops that I just acquired. They have a great range of height, are super stable, and have very wide feet that don’t damage pavement.

I won’t go back to regular WalMart/Harbor Freight jack stands.

I bought these to help support our trailer hitch. They work well for that purpose. They are sturdy and strong. The only thing I don’t like about them is that I thought I would be able to use the ratchet in these jacks to raise the hitch for minor adjustments, much like a car jack.

This product does not do that. You must raise the item you want to support to the height you want using another method, then place these jacks underneath and lower onto them. A bit disappointed about that, but we’ve made it work.

Title says “. Jack Stand”. It is a pair a pair of jack stands as shown. These are very solid. The locking pin makes them much safer as well. I have a 04 GMC 1500 truck that has a three inch lift and they are tall enough to hold my truck up safely without using the full travel of the lift arm.

Very happy with my purchase.

The price was amazing for these stands. Performance: I’m really happy with the product. Held my car up for two day while I waited for parts in my garage. Advice: find them on sale like I did and you’ll be happy with the purchase.

The Products comes two per box. Obviously you have to make sure your cars has spots to hold jack stands. And safety procedures with correct lifting and chucking to hold the vehicle on a flat level surface should be obvious.

I did a lot of research and found these to be the best value for jackstands under $100. The flat, welded-on feet allow them to slide more easily on my rough driveway. A feature most others don’t have.

These are tall enough for my 15-pac van. I like the handle/ratchet system better than the pins I’m accustomed to. So easy to adjust while raising and then drop to lower. These feel stable. Very happy.

Was a bit concerned that these jack stands may be the same ones that harbor freight was selling as the Daytona Brand after seeing them in person. Harbor Freight recalled those jack stands to my knowledge due to the possibility of the stands not holding up the rated weight.

I just made sure to keep the jack under the frame also just in case. The paws on this set of stands appears to not have much material compared to my old Nesco’s.

Good for price. Good welds and decent lever. I would feel safer with these then the lowe end ones. Very good advance diy type prob even pro starter.

Using as jacks stands to set up suspension on my long travel buggy. Plenty strong & stable. Will be using to swap rear axles between 2 F150s in the near future. Not sure I’d trust them to hold up the front of the truck, but they seem strong enough.

The angled pipe brackets on these stands dont work for my welding needs but I knew that before buying 4 of these kick*ss gizmos. Ill fabricate 4 bolt-on magnetic brackets for converting them to hold square tubing, plate stock and all the rest.

Theyre just heavy enough to be stable platforms but not so heavy that theyd sit in the corner unused. Great design and the fabrication is better than weve all become accustomed to from overseas manufacturers.

Im happy as a two-d*ck dog!!.

Great pipe stand. I own two of these. Easy to use. Folding legs make them easy to store and transport. Powder coat is also extremely durable.

I bought the 6 ton jack stands over the 2 ton pair because I own a truck and I wanted to be well over the load capacity to feel safe when working on my vehicle. The stands proved to be sturdy and quite simple to use: pull the lever up when you want to make an adjustment, pull the lever down when you are ready to lock it in place.

However, my only remark was that each level had quite some distance where I had to jack up the truck even higher to securely place it. Perhaps more grooves would help that issue, but might also compromise it’s structural capability to hold large loads.

All in all, this product worked and performed it’s intended purpose.

These are perfect for the normal user. Better than the short jack stands you get at most other stores. These were affordable and available, much better priced than online competitors. I like that there are well constructed and sturdy.

I feel very safe using these jack stands. I definitely recommend this product compared to the other, shorter and lower weight capacity stands that are available at most stores. These do not need to be lifted to their top limit to get them at an appropriate height for comfortable use.

There is more lift available with these. I normally will be using this to work on vehicles such as Nissan Frontier, Toyota Prius, Jeep Wrangler, Toyota Corolla, Dodge Ram 2500, Ford Transit Full size cargo van, etc.

They can do most consumer vehicles no problem!.

I’ve got four stands already. but for that reasonable price, I bought two more for another project so I don’t have to switch around. Being under a car suspended on jacks makes EVERY little creak and sound sound fatal.

I’ve got these stands all around so I can torque down on bolts and use tools with “enthusiasm” under the cars! These stands are the Cheapest Life Insurance I know!!!.

I think it’s a overall good product, BUT I had one of the rubber caps missing. I called JB TOOLS several times and left several voicemails but to no avail. I also filled out the message form for my complaint but likewise to no avail.

Also one of the holes was not big enough for the pin to go through both sides, but no worries, a simple fix. But I would like to have my eighth cap for the stand being that I have spent a lot of CASH with this company or at least have someone get back in touch with me.

AT LEAST!!!.

I researched a number of jack stand product specifications and various review sources before settling on the Esco product. It appears to be well built, it is heavy and the post is made from solid round metal stock.

One of the posts had a nick on the second to lowest hole setting which would not allow pin to go through. It was nothing major and I removed with metal file and didn’t feel it was something that would make me return it.

Look forward to using it on my next DIY project and will feel confident there won’t be accidental release of the holding mechanism as in other designs.
