This was weird because during the weekend I was crawling around under my Disco tightening up bolts and my wife said "What if those stands collapse?" I said "Then you'll be a rich woman." 2 days later I received the email recall notice for my Pittsburgh 6Ton stands.

BLUF... Harbor Freight requests discontinuing use of the 3 Ton Heavy Duty Steel Jack Stands (models 61196 or 56371) and 6 Ton Heavy Duty Steel Jack Stands (model 61197). Return them to the store for a gift card equal to the amount of the retail price.
You can read it here... IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE


*Mods... please place in the appropriate forum if need be.

The only thing I have from Harbor Frieght is some air fittings. Why would anybody trust anything from that place?
i only use harbor freight for shit that im only going to use once. I would never put my life at risk with their jack stands or jacks.
