These were standard issue with the tire changing equipment on all the Chevy Astros, (4), I’ve owned. They didn’t fold up like the ones in the picture, but they did the job. I shouda shanghied a set from one of the wagons I got rid of.

Harbor Frieght, 5 clams. Less when on sale.

Have a set in every vehicle I own.

I have an old set of these that came with one of those compact hydraulic floor jacks and carrying case. Still use them.

BTW, it is possible to run these over. The will deform and the tops will flatten. Nothing a few minutes with a sledge can’t fix, and good-as-new. Don’t ask me how I know. ;-/

The set that I have is “Nissan’ branded and presumably came with a late 80’s Nissan pickup truck.

I think I got my set with some jack stands. Very handy to have around, I keep them in my spare with my tow strap and cables.

These were stock equipment with the tire changing tools on late 80’s/early 90’s S-10 Blazers!
