The car weighs 3200#. Each jack point needs to support 800# give or take. Yep, hockey pucks, rubber blocks, wood, etc with a slot cut in for the pinch weld works fine. Like I said, it's a nice but expensive system but only jacks the car up to what, a whopping 12". Good luck crawling under your car at that height. How much more money to buy extensions to increase the lift so you can actually work under the car? Might as well buy a a two or four point lift. Thanks but I'll keep my money and stick with pucks/wood on conventional jack stands.
