Pelican has these. I bought a pair from them a few weeks ago and am really happy with them:

Poor etiquette on my part, it appears. I meant no disrespect to our host (from whom I have purchased many times over the years).

Yup...poor etiquette. You should delete the thread, or ask a moderator to do it.

Nice looking jacks. Will they support the car at the front under the floor without bending things?

They will bend components just like any other jack stand if used incorrectly. This type works well on factory jack points which are flat (like the tops) vs. traditional axle stands that have a "u" shaped top.

Seems to me that he wound up advertising our host's item for sale, even if by accident.

I bought a set of these from Pelican, but they have the cradle tops. They are of excellent quality.

Those appear to be very nice and I really like the pin lock, but I usually place my jacks under the torsion bar tubes and I prefer the "U" shaped tops for that location. The flat tops would work well for supporting a tub, minus suspension though.

Regards,

Al
