They pop into the 4 spots in dark blue -- "Frame contact locations for use with a lift". They also work just fine as individual jacking points.

They are still on backorder....You were just lucky, as you were the next in line and we found 4 more in the warehouse. Now we are totally sold out until end of May...

Thanks,

Jim

these are a must have.my buddy brought his vette to the dealer for inspection.the regular vette mechanic was off.they put a rookie on the job.he lifted the car with no pucks,put a hole in the floorpan and cracked the bottom pieces.buy these and protect your car from possible damage.

Sure do, just, with international shipping rates. If you go through the checkout process on our website, or give us a phone call, we can put together a USPS Canadian Shipping Quote for you.

If I put in an order now will you have enough to cover it and all the other backorders when you finally get them in? When do you charge the CC?

CC is charged upon order placement to hold your place. Should have enough in the first batch of production to fill all backordered sets (even though there are getting to be a lot of them). After those sets are met, will have more coming also to begin rebuilding sound stock on them. Ordering sooner rather than later never hurts.

Thanks,
Matt

Since people are using them I guess they are strong enough, but I was just wondering how much weight the plastic can take without breaking?

I was looking at the pucks on the Southern Car Parts website and see that there are two different types. Which is better and would be recommended for a 2012 Grand Sport? Are there any coupons or discount codes available for Southern Car Parts?

Not sure about the exact amount of weight it can handle, but do know that we haven't had any issue at all with them on Corvettes. They're more than strong enough for the application we're selling them for.

Thanks,

They're two different styles at two different price points for two different uses. Give us a call at (770)919-1433 and we'll help you figure out what's right for you!

We are still taking backorders, but just wanted to let everyone know our supply is totally exhausted for the next couple of weeks

Thanks,

Default Pucks

They sound fine. I ordered mine several weeks ago and still dont have them, however. On backorder. Does that happen quit often?

I just want to get them, pop them in and not worry about them again. Which ones do I need?

No, this is the first time these have gone on backorder. They're a relatively new product and we just didn't anticipate the response we got for them, so, we didn't make nearly enough in our first production run. We're doing a second, much larger, production run right now to avoid this same issue in the future. As soon as they're available they'll be shipping out.

Thanks,
Matt

You need the Locking style. They're the set and forget ones. The vulcanized rubber ones are the ones you remove and put back on everytime you're jacking the vehicle up.

Any delivery update on these yet? (I'm putting off my first alignment until these are in place.) Also I asked on another thread about how hard the locking ones are to remove once locked in place?
