Abstract
A jack stand apparatus for use with commonly available jacks, particularly for vehicles with insufficient surface area for both jacks and jack stands to be used on the specified lifting points. In one embodiment, the jack stand comprises an axle assembly, a lift pad assembly, a plurality of height adjustable leg assemblies where the leg assemblies may be rotated with respect to the axle assembly, and a leg locking mechanism. In one embodiment, the foldable device is collapsed into a planar orientation, and positioned on top of a jack's lifting plate; passed under the vehicle, including low profile and limited clearance vehicles. Once the apparatus and vehicle are lifted with the jack, the legs of the apparatus are locked into position to support the lifted vehicle, and the jack is safely removed.
