Now are we talking about those Harbor freight deals ? Cause i was just looking into one of those deals shruggy


I had a stand in the early 90's break because the boxed channel iron at the bottom actually tore the metal. It was just a 304 AMC engine so it was not overloaded. Learned then if a stand doesn't have bracing and gussets it gets them before being used.
