Re: RX-8 Axle Stand and Jacking Pads
Which ones should I get guys? These are Halfords jack stands
75mm on the inside with a 40mm wide dip of 5mm (no idea the radius) in the middle
Just worked it out lol (42.5mm radius arc... hrmmm that doesn't sound right)

Re: RX-8 Axle Stand and Jacking Pads
I'd go for the large one, which should fit nicely across the flat part of that profile, providing the largest area of support for the jacking point.
The steel plate should prevent it dipping in the middle.

Re: RX-8 Axle Stand and Jacking Pads
or you take an angle grinder to the edges of the pad base to form something like the inverse of the dip so it all sits nicely on the stand.

^^yes, in the club shop. You need to click on 'parts', they tend not to appear on the landing page for some reason.

Re: RX-8 Axle Stand and Jacking Pads
Just out of curiosity, are these still available in the shop? I couldn't see them or the section parts as mentioned.
I'm using a phone so that could be the problem?

Re: RX-8 Axle Stand and Jacking Pads
These look good. My Halfords stands are 75mm edge to edge with a pronounced dip and around 50mm in the middle. I think they look like the orange stands in the thread - anyone know if I should go for the large or small ones? Feels like small is the better bet for them to sit within the stand rather than resting on the edges?
