Message	Sorry I have no experience with them, but I have been thinking about jack stand alternatives and these look like a good option. At one time I had a kwiklift and it was great, but way too much to deal with for me, ultimately, so I sold it. I wonder if the 12" cribs would give you enough height to drop the transmission? That'd be my biggest concern I think. It has been so long since I did that I can't recall how much room it seems you really need to do that, say, for a clutch job. Andy
