this led me on a mission to buy / try out new jack stands

I started off with a pair of Torin T43004, which are pretty good. But I noticed when you pair them up with bmw jack pad adapters, it feels a little "wobbly"

I now have a pair of Esco 10498 and they are AMAZING. I plan to buy 2 more to make it a full set of 4

I've been using these for years and coupled with roll around floor jacks, have done everything I've needed, they are good at lifting cement sidewalks too

Here's a YouTuber talking about one where you can see it in action...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSUh2e9Idu4
