Interest In "an Alternative To Axlestands"

[jody391]

Hey chaps, I have had a few people interested in the Foam blocks which I have lent to Dr H that I use as axle stands (safer on the undertray and really stable also allowing you to not have to take the undertray off!).

 

I am looking into making 4 off blocks 300mm x 312mm by 265mm tall.

They would cost between £20-30

Delivery costs I would need to check.

 

If anybody is interested then I can look at getting some material.

There maybe a minimum order qty so would depend on interest.

[Dr H]

I would be interested but I have a pretty good set here already!

 

Count me in. What height are the two combined bits you've lent me?

[jody391]

Ha ha ha!

They are or should be 225mm a 150mm piece and a 75mm piece Leigh.

[Dr H]

OK - so these would be a bit higher. As we discussed probably not a bad thing as it will help deal with suspension that has a longer droop travel.

Thanks Leigh.

[JonS]

I'd be interested in 1 set please!

[scatty]

I'd like 58 please....

 

Mrs scatty says we can make an outdoors Jenga...... :-)

Can I get some in red and black check?

[Elaine]

Folks usually tend to use packs of A4 paper, which I s'pose is a similar idea.

[kayj_prod]

Yeah I'd be interested.

[Meister]

Hi

 

I'd be interested.

 

Is there someone cleverer than me that can calculate the density etc and confirm what sort of max weight these things could hold up? I would want some tolerance built in.

 

I know it's a bit H&S but I wouldn't mind knowing.

Defo interested in this Jodi - agree with Meister though - my cars fatter than yours!

I don't really need a set as I send my car off to the likes of Gav to get their hands dirty, however if they come out more like £20 count me in
