Jack stands...for Wanderlodge's

Jack stands...for Wanderlodge's
They are in pairs. I haven't seen any individual ones. I guess you could get them that way though. Not being a metallurgical engineer I will have to take the word of the manufacturer. I will buy US made. I think there are underwriting rules that they have to follow to get a load carrying rating.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions.

Make sure the rating is what you think it is. Is this is pairs or individually?

They don't seem to know how to temper steel very well. I have bought axes and they don't chip at the bite edge, they dent. If that is an example of good steel in China then I don't want my life dependent on them.


I am a little apprehensive about the Pawl lock versus the pin lock. I trust the pin lock over the pawl lock. What do you think.

David,

You know what, I was just thinking about something like that. I was going to build one myself. Thats a great tool. Only way to handle those heavy tires with the heavy rims. Thanks a lot for that website.
