Slee Offroad Prototype Portable Jack Stand

While at the Marlin Crawler Round earlier this month, me and my brother were lucky enough during the raffle to win a new Slee offroad prototype portable jack stand. It is a folding jack stand that makes working on your axle or other parts of your truck much more safe in the field than just using your hi-lift and some rocks. The Jack is very sturdy and made of 6/13 plate steel. the legs fold down for ease of transport and the cover doubles as a Hi-Lift base which is much larger and stronger than the one Hi-Lift sales. this jack is a prototype and not in production yet so we have the first one, and when they do go on sale they may be a little different since this is a protoype, its also their first one made.





I tested it out while replacing my shackle bushings, it awesome it is taller then my 3 ton jacks and probly stronger too. its nice to have a jack thats tall enough to lift my truck off the ground with the suspesion droop

That's a good implementation of a cool idea.

Nice that you one won before they were available.

Cool, glad you are happy with it. We are finalizing the design and should have them for sale by Christmas. Glad you figured out how it came together after the really short demo at the Rubicon.

We do not have a price yet. We are working to make it as affordable as possible, but steel prices keep going up and there are quite a few porcessed involved in making it.

We got tired of searching campgrounds for jack stands at events. People do not want to take a jackstand with when they go on trips due to size and the awkward shape to pack. We figured if we make is compact it might be a good seller.
