    With a 4X4 block will be perfect to get it up to 21" Which will be more than sufficient to have the room I need.

    They lock into place and ar suppose to be pretty safe. I would use these for safety

    I would defiantly go this route for cars only. But 1200lbs. capacity is a bit light for larger trucks. Perfect if they made them larger with more capacity.

    Another option if you want a way to sneak under in a quick, easy way, is a set of Race Ramps. Not the middle though, front or back. Can take abuse and getting wet too.

    Not sure what’s 1200lbs. The Quick jack can hold up to 5000lbs and the wheel cribs hold 1500lbs per crib so 6000lbs….

    I'm not a BIG truck guy so I can't say what the front weight is on a large truck like F250. I know all the cheaper jacks are 1500 lbs a jack and is why they call them three ton weight capacity. I love the looks of them and would make a cleaner presentation! Not to mention half the time it would take to fumble stands. I'm going to reach out to Race Ramps this week and tell them what I'm planning to use them for like larger nobly tires and if they will work. Also if they are working on a wider model for trucks w/more capacity. The stands I just bought will sure make me feel safe working under the truck! Supper solid and heavy duty! Check out Esco ones and there identical for $30 more but have all raving reviews.

    DDP. Not sure how much thought you have put this through but by the time you add in the air jack, the jack stands, the jack and now you're talking about Race Ramps. If the space allows, whether it be floor + overhead ceiling height, have you just considered omitting all of them and just being a QuickJack ?
