How To Use A Car Jack Stand?

The most crucial tools in your workshop are not pliers, screwdrivers, or wrenches. The most crucial tools are the ones that keep you safe. Jack stands are one such tool that helps to keep you safe as you go about your work fixing and taking care of cars. It is not only important to have a pair of jack stands in your garage but to also know how to use them correctly for optimal safety and productivity.

Regardless of the specific maintenance or repair tasks you are doing, if you’re lifting your vehicle and using jacks, there are certain things that you must do. We recommend that you always have the following safety equipment when using jack stands:

  • Mechanical Gloves
  • Safety Glasses

Check Your Jack and Jack Stand Specifications

Your jack and jack stands have limits when it comes to the number of loads they can handle. It is vital to check these specifications in the relevant user manuals before proceeding to use any of these pieces of equipment. You should establish the weight of your car, and then find the appropriate jack stands to lift it.

Always Work on A Flat and Solid Surface

When you have up to 2 to 3 tons of weight up into the air, you need the highest level of stability and security you can get. You should never use jack stands on slanted surfaces or surfaces with a lot of sand or gravel as they can cause your car to roll or move.

Jack Stands FAQs

Is it safe to work under a car on jack stands?

  • Jack stand failure is not common. Jack stands are made using strong metals that are able to hold more weight than they are rated for. However, user errors are common and can happen easily. Common problems involve wrong positioning of the stands either on the car or the ground as well as mounting the stand on soft ground.
  • If you follow the relevant user instructions, you should be safe to work under your car while suspended on jack stands.

Can you put a car on one jack stand?

  • Depending on the task, you may need to lift just one wheel, the back end or front end, or the entire vehicle. If you are lifting just one wheel or one end of your vehicle, you’ll need at least 2 jack stands. It’s not advisable to put your car on a single jack stand.

Which jack stand is best?

  • The best jack stand is determined by the type of vehicle you intend to be working on. You should get a 2-ton jack stand if you want to work on small or light cars, a 3-ton jack stand if you want to work on medium to large cars, or a 5 or 6-ton jack stand if you will be routinely working on trucks and other heavy commercial vehicles.

Are pin or ratchet car stands better?

  • While ratchet jack stands are safe, pin jack stands are considered more reliable because they include a locking pin that makes it almost impossible for a vehicle to slip through the base.

Are old jack stands safe?

  • Jack stands are made from very sturdy and durable pieces of metal. This means that old jack stands can be as safe and reliable as new jack stands. It’s advisable to always have a backup to hold the vehicle and balance the load.
