6 Ton Ratchet Jack Stand
The American Forge & Foundry 55060 is a heavy-duty automotive support stand rated for six tons. It uses a ratchet mechanism to lock the saddle at the required working height. A wide pyramid base and large support saddle increase stability while the vehicle is raised. The frame is built from high-grade forged steel with a welded construction for lasting durability.
Workshop Use and Limitations
This stand suits professional technicians and home mechanics who need a secure, adjustable support for cars and light trucks during under-vehicle work. The single-unit package means buyers requiring a matched pair for axle-level lifting must purchase two. It is not a hydraulic jack and cannot lift the vehicle on its own.
6 Ton Load Rating
The decisive specification is the six-ton capacity, which sets the maximum weight this stand can safely support. Selecting a stand rated below the vehicle's axle weight creates a serious safety hazard. Confirm the load requirement before use.

Questions about this item
Will the green 55060 ratchet jack stand work with the hydraulic floor jack I already own?
Yes, the 6-ton capacity ratchet stand pairs with any hydraulic floor jack rated for at least 6 tons; lift the vehicle with your floor jack first, then position the stand under the recommended lift point and lower the load onto the large forged saddle.
How can I verify the multi-position ratchet bar on the 55060 is locking correctly after I set the height?
Raise the ductile-iron ratchet bar until you hear a distinct click at each notch, then apply downward pressure — the bar should not slip and the wide pyramid base must remain flat on the ground.
What comes in the box with the 55060 and do I need any extra hardware to use it?
The box contains the single 6-ton ratchet jack stand with its welded frame, wide pyramid base and large saddle already assembled; no additional hardware is required for normal operation.
