🚗 Enhance Vehicle Safety with ABN 5-½in Large Jack Pad Universal Fit Cross Slotted Frame Rail Protector Review

I have a Harbor Freight 3 ton flat jack. I recently bought two machines with welded jacking points on the edges so I bought these to jack up. When I got it the shoulder diameter was too big to fit in my jack so I took it to a bench grinder and cut about 1/8 inch around the shoulder, rotating the part in my hand. This kept it fairly round and the material came loose easily. Now it fits right up to the jack and works great. Only a month old but so far I like it and it was worth it because I…

As silly as it may seem to write a review about a jack, this product deserves a positive review. Ordering through Amazon Prime was easy. Delivery was quick. The overall look of the product matched my redemption. So far I have used these jacks on several vehicles - two new VWs and a Nissan all with welds. I pair this pad with a 2.5 ton aluminum load lifter. Fits snugly on the base and sits very snugly on the jack pad. The pinch stitch crosshair cutouts have made it and are deep enough to protect

Good: does the job. Mitigates the amazingly stupid practice by car companies (well, Ford anyway) of running a brittle weld right down the center of the car's jack points. This pad transfers the weight of the car to the jack location rather than lifting (and likely crushing) the weld as 99.9% of jacks and stands go without pads. okay port freight) 3 ton jack. It works well enough, but at least one other commenter reported that his block tipped over and the car was thrown off the jack. Mine…

What are the options for placing a pad between the metal shell of the jack and the painted underbody when jacking the vehicle? Most passenger cars today are unibody, meaning there is no continuous front-to-back frame. Therefore, when lifting the car, certain points need to be reinforced and used. However, some are painted welds or double-thick metal plates under the chassis. So are you using a block of wood, a towel or worse nothing and risk scratching under the car? This jack pad is the…

MAYBE IT SHOULD GIVE 5 OR 4.5 STARS because my jack saddle, a very cheap port freight model, may be a bit generous (in this case too low) manufacturing tolerances! If so, we at Auto Body Now apologize for lowering your 5 STAR RATING! I LOVE the adapter/guard; I've used it before and it works, although my Jack saddle is a bit small. The tread compound compresses and flexes just enough to accommodate and continue to function safely! If you look at the running surface of the rail you can see that…

Update 7th Aug '19 I bought this Nov 2016 and do all the maintenance and repairs on our 4 cars. I've used it a few times a week since then, so it's had over 200, maybe 300 jacks on it, whether it's on the rails, crossbars, or suspension components. I've also used it to support my engine, transmission and countless other non-automatic jacks. It is in perfect condition and is around 3 years old and looks like new, no cracks, no warps, no rips. I even moved it onto the rails so that the rail went…
