Review on 🧲 DEDC Universal Aluminum Magnetic Jack Pad Pinch Weld Adapter for Frame Rail - Orange by Todd Adams

I tried using this adapter to weld with a two ton jack on two different cars and found that there were two problems with them. While this is a great idea and very well done and may work on some cars and some jacks, it didn't work in my case. It seems that automobile clamp stitches are not made with "flat" or "rectangular" shoulders. That is, as you slide the swage adapter up over the swage joint, it "lowers" on one side of the weld before doing so on the other, so the adapter is angled (in the case of both my cars (Altima and Camry ). touches) actually approaches two to three inches from the ground, and the point where the jack touches the adapter is placed too low when the jack arm is moved (too horizontal, no longer vertical), so the jack endeavors to lift the weight of the vehicle off the ground while the lever is still only 2 inches from the base of the jack. Consequently, the jack starts lifting its rear wheels off the ground, and since the outside corner of the adapter only makes contact with the jack's extra cup at the very inside edge, the adapter wants to fly off the car and you hit the ground. face when you look at it to see how it rises.
