Jack Stand Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Mr Chevy · 04-30-2008, 03:26 AM

I posted this in the shop safety section on the site but from the looks of the posts nobody goes there so here it is:

Hey guys I always do all of my lifting and using of jack stands on a nice solid concrete slab.
But now I have another project parked on my slab and need to lift my truck on my newer asphault driveway. The driveway was just put in this past fall around early november.
My question is this:
I was hoping it would be safe and protect my new driveway by laying down some pieces of 1/2" plywood under both the jack and the jack stands???
What do you guys think?
