my legs come way down does anyone build a set of blocks to put under jacks. someone told me it is unsafe because it could roll off. I am thinking of cutting 2x4x12" and make them about 8" tall
I want to spread the load, both on sand, gravel or concrete! I use 2 x 12, 2 x 4's in my opinion are to narrow to adequately hold the weight. In addition, I took a 6 x 6 and ripped it giving me a 3 x 6 approximately 18" long for the front legs. When I pull the pin and lower the feet, they drop about 6" to the top of the 3 x 6. I too feel they extend to far with out any blocks, but you must make it wide enough to provide a stable platform.
