halfords do quite a nice jack and axle stand pack. rated for 2 tonnes so they must be fairly robust i should think. even though people have digs at halfords. i cant deny that the budget tools and fasteners do help me out from time to time.

what one did you get,?

dont get me wrong im sure there ok, just some reviews seem to say there a bit dodgy.. anyway general rule, use axel stands and then you know youll be ok!

i saw the pack they do, for like 40 quid, axel stands etc

ive got 5 axel stands already!
