Harbor Freight HD Jack Stands?

Do any of you guys own a set of these?

I have to stabilize my frame behind the axle and these are the only stands I could find that have the height that I need - that aren't like $350.00+.

i'm just hesitant to place my life and my rig with cheapo Chinese cast stands. Thoughts?

I got a set of the big orange ones and I haven't died yet.

Lol

Most jack stands are made by the same manufacturer.........just painted different colors and boxed by the vendors that buy them in bulk.

I have a set exactly like those. Mine are orange with white posts. No issues, no concerns.

I have the 6 ton versions, work great.

I also have the big orange ones

Just buy them...

I have some of the 12 ton HF ones and some from mac tools and they are identical. work great and are plenty strong enough

Yup, got several sets myself...and my friend/roommate has the really big ones.

They're perfectly fine and as good as any other brand i've had.

I know where to get 25% off coupons along with freebie coupons if anyone is curious

Its RARE that I EVER walk out paying remotely full price for anything at Harbor Freight. I also never walk out without a freebie (flashlight, scissors, headlamp, rope, gloves, screwdriver set, etc.) I think I've seriously gotten about 15+ of their screwdriver sets that you can get for free. Figured if they break or I need to lend some out...no worries if they break or don't return

have the orange & white that i paid like $15 for also.. work fine.
