[QUOTE="-Pjackso, post: 4307016, member: 8119"] Note to all / PSA: Jack stand weight capacity is given ***PER PAIR***, not per stand. So if you have a jack stand that says "3 ton" on the stand, each jack stand is rated for 1/2. I did some RV work replacing brakes, doing one wheel at a time. I used my 2-ton jack stand for the job. Afterwards, I found out about the 'per-pair' rating - I realized that my jack stands were at 100% capacity. I've bought some much heavier duty jack stands since then. [/QUOTE]
