Looking for cheap axle stands as a new diy mechanic and need to stop risking my life to save £10
3 tonne for £2 more.
Cheapest its been.
The Halfords 3 Tonne Axle Stands have a large base for extra stability with a load pin with safety chain attached. Enough for most average size cars.

Just a quick health and safety tip for those DIY'ers getting these
When you take a wheel off the car, slide it under so that if the axle stands slip you still have a chance of not seriously hurting yourself! (It would also limit the damage to the car :smile: )

Been using these axle stands for a good while now with no problems.
Also got these to protect the cars underneath. Rubber protection pads

I'd spend an extra few quid and get ratchet ones such as these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Silverline-763620-Axle-Stand-Tonne/dp/B000WTHL42/ref=sr_1_28?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1474186497&sr=1-28&keywords=Axle+stands
