What's the difference between these and car jack stands? Can you use these for cars?
1952115
it IS a jack stand. Doesn't matter whether you use it for a car or camper as long as you're within its limitations of weight. It holds a car when it's already lifted on a jack and prevents car from dropping if jack fails. Car typically is heavier than a camper, but 6 ton seems adequate to hold one corner of a small car. And again, you use it as an additional safety measure with a car jack, not as a lifting tool on its own.

It does say "jack stand" on the box but I would use it only for stabilizing an RV which means it keeps the RV from rocking when walking inside the RV. The metal used to construct them appears to be a casting. The top of the stand is small in size and it could easily slip loose.

Car Stands typically use a pin or other solid metal stop, to hold up the adjustable component. While these stands are rated at 6000 lbs, and should suffice, the failure mode is not as robust as a stand using a pin or other solid metal indexing design. If the nut threads fail, the car could end up on you...as opposed to shearing a pin / bolt. It likely will work, but extra caution would say...get a jack stand that uses something solid, not a nut/bolt if your life is depending on it. Other examples similar to this, that are designed to carry a car engine or other heavy component have a much longer threaded sleeve.

I would not use these for anything that is suspended, like a heavy car. These are a lighter jack and work great for additional support to balance or keep a trailer from rocking. I used them on a trailer with single axle to keep the trailer from tipping back with too much weight in the wrong places since I was working on the surface of the trailer and walking around. They would work also on RV trailers to stabilize the movement of the trailer when parked.....

These jacks are to light to be used or cars. These stands are just for support on trailers and camper trails.

These jacks are primarily for stabilizing trailers. They do not " jack up" (or down), but rather, their movement is accomplished by turning the screw. I hope I've given you a proper description from which to determine their suitability for your specific need.

Honestly, I would think that a car jack stand is made to hold the full weight of a car for when the wheels are off of it, or something similar. These are made to just support the weight of the camper to keep it from rocking when you reach your site. I would contact the manufacturer before I used these as a car jack. Works perfect for stabilizing a camper! :)

These stands are for leveling an RV.For vehicles you want to use vehicle specific jack stands for safety reasons.

It depends on how high off the ground you front center jack point is. If its 5.12inches or more it will work, if its less than 5.12inches then it will not work. To be honest though, this jack stand is junk. I ordered 1 and the entire jack was slightly twisted. So only 3 of the 4 wheels were touching the ground. So I sent it back and got another one that had the exact same problem. It would be EXTREMELY dangerous to use it if not all 4 wheels are on the ground. I ended up buying OTC 1532 2-Ton Capacity Aluminum Racing Jack, its way nicer and lighter, but it does cost about twice as much...

They will work , but not recommended or desighned to. Cars stereos provide power at a lower load resistance...4ohm. And these speakers are internally wired at an 8 ohm level which Home stereos use, but I have used home speakers with 4ohm equiptment before without causing any problems.

When Buying For Car in hookes into your car speakers. If for home use you can use another source of speakers. But yes you need speakers.

No, they're mini-jacks. This adapter is a slitter. It simply gives you two jacks from one. Hope that helps

They are a standard jack. My son uses them for IPad mini. I use in I Pod. I don't see why they wouldn't work with any device.

Both jacks work for either or. You can use two pair of headphones or speakers you can also mix them up headphones and speaker.

Yes they are not jacks. They are jack stands. They hold the vehicle after you have jacked it in place

I would not advice you to use this jack. It literally fell apart the second time my husband used it, thankfully he wasn't under the car at the time.

They take the 1 3/8 inch diameter speaker stands. These really are pretty good speakers. If you get them check the 1/4 inch inputs. The locking nuts that hold the jacks loosen. Also if using the speakon connections check to make sure the speakon connector actually locks into place. Only one of my speakers connects correctly but fortunately my powered mixer has 1/4 inch outs.

These don't just mount to the floor of the car. You will need a base specific for your car.

These are stabilizer's and are not designed to be used to level your unit. If you raise the unit beyond stabilizing the jack screw will bend and will no longer be useful.

Jack stands are not designed for a particular vehicle. They should work on everything as long as you use a part of the frame of the vehicle; somewhere where the weight of the vehicle won't damage it.

The main Torin page (www.torinjacksusa.com) is not much more help than the description here on Amazon for your particular question but there is a warning on each jack stand as well as in the Operators Manual that comes in the box and they both say (along with other warnings) that the stands are only to be used as a matched pair so my assumption would have to be that the stands are rated to hold 3 tons together as a pair and not individually.

As long as you can jack the car up high enough, they would be fine. The problem is having a jack that raises high enough to clear the stands. I bought a jack that, fully extended, is 2" too short to lift the car onto the stands. They're great- just make sure your jack is up to the task!

I think you would be alright if using 2 jacks. these are good HD stands. 6000# each if I remember right!.

Didn't see a jack for either. (May be internal?) Re speaker phone quality, we've used it on both base and two cordless extensions. Quality is pretty good. Biggest problem we've encountered is when speaking to someone using a car speakerphone. But that issue is the same whether we are on our speakerphone or not. We've been happy with ours and would recommend.
