The post, which has the pad on top, is solid bar and 1 and 3/16 inches in diameter.

The outer tube is 1 and 9/16 inches OD, with a wall thickness of a little over 2/16"- that leaves an average clearane between the inner post and the ID of the outer tube of just under 1/16". I don't have a decent mic to measure....

The locking pin is solid and approx. 1/2" OD.

Shipping weight for two (2) stands is 27 lbs. Each stand is rated for 6000 lbs. One stand is sufficient to support our car.... but I wouldn't recommend it trying this!!! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

Like Barth7 indicated, these are shiznit! They ain't cheap either- last group buy was $68 per, not including shipping. I got four and tossed my old craftsman stands.

What I've found to work well as a jacking pad is a hockey puck. Pucks can be had for very little on ebay etc.

I always double up on jack stands and supports when under any car, so as to minimize any concerns...

I saw that Pelican also sells those jackstands, FWIW. Steve is usually sold out.

Back more on topic, I am still happy with my aluminum floor jack from a race shop off eBay.

I'm intrigued by the new OTC jack model 5200--

Dr. Allen! This is Bart Hoillingsworth from Hamilton. Hope all is well for you. How is your car coming?

That jack looks nice, super low, but the 23 lb jack I have has at least one advantage over it [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]
