I seen that too, just when you think at least you can get something like a chunk of metal from china that will be ok, nahhh not even that, sad. If we keep buying junk they will keep selling it. Same goes for everything else. 

Wow...and having a Cummins strapped is some serious weight too.  It's like having 2 V8's on it at one time.  How much would that suck if your Cummins landed on your foot...you'd hospitalized for Coronavirus for sure! 

Got that email myself the other day, had a set of 3 and 6 tons in the garage. Turned them in for store credit on a gift card and saved the 20% off coupon. Mostly turned them in because they where pretty well used after 7 yrs of use and why not upgrade. 
 

went and bought the strong way brand ones from northern tool, save a few bucks if ya buy online if you can travel to a store if they are near you. 
 

id like to buy American made but from what I can find the only floor jacks and jack stands are made by hein-werner (I think I spelled it right) but that’s a bit more than I wanna spend

What I think about is, are there other brands this manufacturer made them for, as I'm beginning to see some evidence of manufacturing similarities among different brands.  Don't know, but a good idea to check the 4 that I got from Napa.

Had to go and check mine, bought a pair of 6 tons last year, not the part number they are looking for though.
