jackstand
Stationary lifting brace
A jackstand is a metal support placed under a vehicle after it's been raised by a jack.
Unlike a jack, which lifts, a jackstand holds—providing stable support while you work underneath.
They come in pairs and are essential safety equipment: Never get under a car supported only by a jack; always use jackstands.
