Yes. I returned some a while back. They re-engineered all or most all of their jack stands. No Bueno on the old style.

That's a weird one: recalling the recall replacements. I have 8 JS's and some are clearly inferior yet I used them as a young man. I have some from Sears and other than the black paint, they are identical to HF and all the rest of the discount tools store jacks.
What's a guy supposed to do? Well, I leave a floor jack or 2 under the car with light pressure. My Jag XJ6 is one heavy SOB in front. |

He would be sitting in a perfect condition William Morris chair wearing his Italian leather shoes sipping an espresso....barking orders to Juan on how to do the brake job. btw...Tabs once said "If you ever need to get my attention, say my name three times in a row"

LOL! Dunno what else I can do. If this becomes true, I'll just shrug and know that I tried to warn him.
