Weather here hasn't been affecting my estate/GS finds, even over the holiday.
Last weekend picked up:
A pair of Snap-on YA874 2-ton jackstands (4 ton pair)

It's usually in the rear casters. You can shim them on the bottom with a machine washer of about 1/16", and that solves the front wheels not being on the ground at the same time.
About a year ago I decided I needed to replace the floor jack I sold when I moved across country. I was looking at a used Snap-on FJ300 for around $250 on Craigslist, and the new Daytona yellow jacks. Neither one really impressed me, and the more I read about either of them, the more I...
I would recommend the Sunex as well for an inexpensive set. They seem fairly soft, and any hammering starts to round out the drive end pretty quick. On some of the larger sockets I have to hit the bottom with a file every use so it doesn't tear my drawer liners. They are very tight fitting...
