Return PolicyUnder car access is a given when working on such classics as hot rods, muscle cars, and such. From restoration and custom work to regular maintenance and repairs, having sufficient under car access height is an important part of the job. While it would be great if we all had the budget and ceiling height for a two- or four-post lift, the reality is many of us simply do not (especially the ceiling height). Drive on ramps and ratchet-style jack stands can only get you up so high. Maybe enough for an oil change, but you’re not dropping that old automatic out for a 5-speed manual swap, that’s for sure. Many people opt to build a set of DIY wheel cribs out of 2x4 lumber cut and screwed together into a tower of wooden studs. While functional, the wheel stand ends up being quite heavy at roughly 40 pounds a piece and you’ll be into a solid weekend time wise cutting the wood and screwing it all together. A better alternative, that still provides a solid and stable platform for your vehicle are our aluminum wheel cradles.
Those wooden wheel cribs are heavy and you must have the room to store four large wooden stands in your shop or garage. Our aluminum wheel cradles provide a 16-inch raised working height, while offering easy to handle construction at just 14 pounds each. They’re built from 0.125 (1/8-inch) 5052 aluminum that is laser cut and CNC press bent into shape and fully TIG welded. The car wheel stand design includes a 0.160 cross brace that doubles as a carry handle. Total capacity of the four wheel cradle kit is 6,000 pounds (1,500 pounds per wheel cradle) and when stacked (for storage and transport use only!) the four wheel cradles are just 34.50 inches tall. This means the stack of four wheel cradles can easily store in the corner of a shop or garage or can be transported in your enclosed car trailer for use at races or even show events where you want your vehicle elevated to display the underside via mirrors!
The tire contact surface is 11.78 inches wide and 14.05 inches long, accommodating everything from classic muscle car tire sizing to modern low-profile rubber up to 12 inches wide. The design of our aluminum wheel stand kit also keeps your vehicle’s suspension loaded, providing easy access to suspension and shock adjustments for ride height and more without the up and down work of raising the vehicle to make the adjustment and then lowering it see what the vehicle looks like. So, whether you need under car access for repairs or looking for a unique way to display your ride at show with a car show wheel stand setup, skip the woodshop class and use our lightweight aluminum wheel cradles instead. You’ll be happy you did!
