Jack stands for Tundra SR5 extra cab

I need some suggestions on quality jack stand brands. Since I'll be working under the truck, I want something other than those made in China or Taiwan. Are Craftsman brand good? What weight capacity should I look for? TIA

Most of the Craftsman stuff is not made in the USA anymore. Look for something that is rated for twice the weight of your truck...unless your want to trust your life to something less.

Weight is the #1 characteristic for a jack stand, Height coming in a close second.

Having a jack stand that can hold something 36 inches off the ground is useless if the capacity is small, but a large capacity that is vertically challenged is also not very useful. Craftsman are fine. Frankly, a static load on a Chinese jackstand is okay if the stand does not wobble.
