Do you know the minimum/max height on those jack stands? I could not find it anywhere on the page.

Me neither. Good for track use as well, since they have plates at the bottom of the feet that won't dig into hot asphalt.

Here's the data for the ESCO jack stands from another website:

Well, I used my new AC Hydraulic DK13DLQ floor jack and ESCO jack stands the other day on my S2000 and I'm very pleased with these tools...very user friendly. My car is stock height and reached both the front and rear jack points perfectly. The jack will raise to almost 29". I ordered the rubber saddle to go with the jack, but I don't think it is necessary even for jacking the side lifting points. The metal saddle doesn't look like it will touch anything other than the lift points. The ESCO jack stands (21") only come with the rubber saddles. The construction of these jack stands is simple, effective and safe.

If you are still looking for these type of tools, I can highly recommend them. The ESCO stands were drop shipped from the manufacturer, but communication (or lack thereof) between Pelican Parts and ESCO was a problem/disappointment. After about two weeks of waiting, I called Pelican Parts to inquire about my order which resulted in an immediate shipment from ESCO...somebody dropped the ball I guess.

My craftsman like the above mentioned one just blew it's seal and leaked fluid everywhere about 3 months ago. I've been searching for a good jack, everyone likes the Harbor Freight but it only lifts 3000lbs, with todays market, I doubt my next car will be under 3000lbs and I think my G/F's is already over that. Any other suggestions for me and others in my situation?
The Harbor Freight jack I used wouldn't hold pressure. You get what you pay for.

I'd buy another craftsman.
