Those look great- nothing like machined aluminum.

I went the cheap route with $1 hockey pucks and $.50 1-1/2 eye bolts and spray painted them florescent orange so I don't forget to take them out.

The box they came in seemed great enough to leave them in and store them in the rear compartment.

I have the blue ones. Just remember to take them out as they make a horrendous racket when one falls out at 45 mph the week before last.

Default Pucks

You know they have nice looking pucks, but they never answer the dam phone to take your order. Ya I can order online but heck if no one answsers the phone makes me wonder about their business. Anyone know another place to get some nice pucks rather than these?

I went to ACE Hardware and Hockey Haven and got my Jacking pucks. Total was about $9 and 1 hour of my time. The money I saved went in my Gas tank.

Same route I went and you know, the $50 pucks don't do a single thing better! When they are being used, you can't see them anyways!

I also like the rubber puck on the hoist arm, less likely to slip if you aren't right under it. To each his own I guess!

I have the same pucks. BUT, they are in the trunk as I have used the
BMW pucks for the last two years. I might use these as paper weights
in my garage.
