Reinforce Jack points?

[SilverBack]

Damn wish I had checked this thread this morning. I just rotated my tires and in the process put a giant hole in the frame where one of those big rubber tabs used to be . The plus side is that the tab fits snugly on the contact point of the floor jack for future use, so it hasn't gone to waste.

You can get a 2.5 ton Duralast at AutoZone for only $50. Been using one with 2-ton stands for 7 months and still no problems.

Is the Duralast stand "Made in China"?

x2 on that Duralast I have one also and been using it for 3 years now with no issues. You should always have a couple of floor jacks and atleast 4 jackstands. "THE MORE THE MERRIER"
