Jack Stands - GTA

Hey GTAers...

Thought I would try posting my search for a specific type of jack stand I am trying to find in the GTA...

I have attached a few photos as the type of jack stand I need is specific to where I need the top plate to be flat area, not the usual axle jack type...

I tried Princess Auto, CT, and some small auto parts suppliers, but no luck... If anyone has seen the type of jack stand, appreciate your feedback...

Thanks

Not seen that style in a very long time. Might I ask why it is you feel you need this over commonly available offerings?

I never jack the car or support it on stands using those jack points. There are many other places under the car where it can be jacked/supported. For this, the standard CT stands for $20-$40 will do the job.
