Harbor Freight Jack Stands....again (or still)

[lbhsbz]

Saw this posted on another site...FYI. Best to just avoid HF on stuff like this.

Harbor Freight recall replacement jack stands may be unsafe too, report says

One customer's recall-replacement jack stand split at the weld seam during use.

You know there just some things you shouldn’t ever buy from Harbor freight.

What are you guys using and how about a decent floor jack?

What about a Harbor Freight gantry crane?? With coupon I think it cost a whopping 500.00, chain fall included.
I have their 6 ton jack stands too. Replaced the lift kit on my Jeep using them. I know I know but ...... I didn't die.
