What Jack Stands are you using?

Hey Guys,

Ordered up my suspension an will be doing the install myself . I am wondering for the DIY folks what Jack stands are you using with your truck? I have several already but I feel like they dont get high enough for a truck alot of the time.. I suppose some wood under them could boost that up.. Just wondering if anyone had a particular brand or model they found works good for truck applications..

 

Been using something similar to these, for swapping shocks on my two 4Runners; imagine they'll work for the Tundra.

These are what I wish I had, but I have a hard time dropping that much on another jack and set of stands.

I have the HF Pittsburgh 6 ton stands. They have smaller and bigger.

 

Sunex medium height 10 ton stands. Get up high enough to fully droop icon rxt rear suspension.

A bit expensive for jackstands but worth every penny.

I thought the same thing! That’s a lot of dough, no matter what’s in the bank or credit line.

Any time off-roading there is the high likelihood of breaking down and needing the truck lifted or on stands.

First “real” serious trip on dirt and my ProEagle and jack stands helped get my friend’s steering rack switched out in Mojave.
Worth every penny knowing I helped.

Thank you for the suggestions

 

old school Craftsman Pro jack stands.

 

I use these they fold up for storage and will lift the rear of my truck with i96 deavers off the ground with out a jack. I have also used them to support the front of truck when lifted off the ground with a jack

 

I bet the UPS guy just loves you now.

I'd love to have a set of those as well.

 

Those are sweeeet

 

Craftsman 4 ton jack stands.

 

Quickjack.

 

I'm looking into purchasing the quick jack. How are you liking it so far? What section of the frame are you able to lift at? In front of the cross member or behind? Are you using the truck adapter kit? Sorry for so many questions. I'm trying to decide between the slx and ext. I'd like to use it on our rav 4 as well. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

 

This reminds me that I returned my jack stands to HF under that recall and now I'm out of big jack stands :/

 

I like them their ok a bit heavy to move around but once they are set up their nice I put them on the frame rails side to side I use the truck spacers to get a bit higher lift. I have used them on my Honda Odyssey my pilot and my accord as well. What I like the most is that they fit between my wall joist so they are not in the way in my garage

 

I like the safe Jack Jack stands. Pricey, but they work in gravel/sand. Picked up a 6 ton bottle Jack to use the same attachments.

 

But that’s not the only thing I have to lift the truck or cars in my garage I normally use a 3 ton jack from Costco and 2 Ton jack stands from Harbor Freight

 

I think I'm going to pull the trigger on them. Home depot has a sale on them right now. I just hope they are able to lift my truck high enough off the ground. I am running a larger tire.

 

Also have a couple HF 12 tons (for the height, I don't care about the capacity) and then some 6 tons for smaller things.
