Silverline Axle Stand Set 2pce 3 Tonne (763620)

Product Information

I’m an engineer and the majority of my tools are from the Halfords Advanced range. The guarantee is amazing and the quality and feel of the range is superb. I bought this little set to keep in the glovebox of my van and it’s been invaluable as it covers a wide range of screw heads for those little jobs. Whether you’re a workshop hobbyist or mechanically-minded pro, having the right tools can be the difference between project success and project frustration. Make sure you will be working on level and solid ground. Soft ground or a slope, even a slight one, can cause stands to tilt with potentially dangerous consequences

Good candidates include suspension mounting points or rails for the chassis. The best spots will differ between car models. Do not use the sump (oil reservoir) or floor pan (central metal plate) as these will not be strong enough to support an axle stand. Ensure your stands are strong enough to properly support the weight of your vehicle. For safety, the rated weight of your stands - how much they can safely support - should be more than the total weight of the vehicle and not just the heaviest axle With options to spread the cost , it’s never been easier to go from zero to home mechanic hero in no time. We’ll help get you ready for every eventuality with the highest quality car stands and all the tools & accessories you’ll need to save time and money maintaining your car yourself. Read our guide to buying the correct equipment when lifting your car, this guide includes how to select the right products for you and the basic steps involved in using them. Make sure your stands are suitable for the vehicle you will be supporting and will be able to support its full weight

Good quality set, with a lifetime guarantee as a bonus. It fits nicely in my tool box with another two trays. The weight of your vehicle is normally quoted on the vehicle identification number (VIN) plate inside the door jamb on the driver’s side of the car. It can usually also be found quoted in the manual, alongside some additional context, such as the weight at the front and rear axles and the maximum permissible weight when the vehicle is fully laden Do not begin work under the vehicle without giving the stands a firm push. If they move, they have not been properly secured Ryobi specialise in developing top-quality power tools for hobbyists and professionals alike.

The comfortable grip handle allows for greater torque, while the 33-piece bit set gives you a screwdriver fit for every situation.
