jack stands

what are you guys with 6" lift using for jack stands in the back, i need to get it up off the ground completely but having a hard time finding some jack stands. i seen one set but they wanted 500.00 for lol cant afford that im on a small budget. i want something safe definitely as i'll pretty much be living under there for week or so. i think my jack with few timbers will be ok to get it up there just looking for soulution for jack stands. and i cant weld anything up for it as only got a 110 mig so wouldnt be solid enough. measured it and looks like would need 35" or higher jack stands. if anyone knows where to locate these for decent price and could link or info would be appreciated.
