My cousin and I designed and made aluminum jack pad adapters for my DBS. We designed them to work with http://www.jackpointjackstands.com.

This is the JackPoint stand with a recessed pad on top.




Here is a picture of the recessed pad. Mine has a hole drilled in the center of the pad, so that I can use a dowel to line up the jackstand and puck with the rubber grommet at the car's jack point.




Here are a couple photos of my car's jack points.






The first crude iteration of my jack pad made from a hockey puck.




Next iteration: nylon prototypes




Checking the fit of the nylon prototype




And the final product made from aluminum

 

Would you have the dimensions and pin location as I intend to build something similar.

 

Can you make a few more?

 

hello, i own a plastics company and i currently manufacture jack pads. If there is a small market and a test car i would be interested in making these to fit DBS. If someone has a idea of the size and can draw a sketch id be willing to make some. And will need a few testers that would get a few sets for free for helping wigh the fitment and testing. Let me know if there is any one who is interested..
thanks

Hi Dave...there are two other companies making jack pads already...while it is a good idea...I am not sure if this is the product to manufacturer...

I have a Vantage and already have jack pads...

Perhaps asking if there are other items guys want would benefit your business...

Anyway...weclome and I wish you well!

 

Lol there might be others including yourself.. But i can tell you this much ,your products will never have any advantage over our pads .
I have been makeing pads and other suspension kits for many years.. So if you think by being a bully i just lol..
For everyone else see ebay username
jackpads4you and then see our sales
thanks for your time and effort to not have anyone else compete with what you and your buddies make at home in the basement.
Lift kits and any polyurethane needs you may have.
Enjoy

 

Within the next week here i will bave jackpads available for the DBS mode from polyurethane at a huge price savings compaired to aluminum. And polyurethane wont scratch or damage the undercoating. As the snow states will understand what a little rust can do to you DBS when it gets scratched or damages as the aluminum types do.
estamated price of out set of four will be less the $50. Compaired to aluminum type that sell for four times that

Go to the proper area..
Vendor classified and read for yourself..

 

I am doing nothing but letting auto owners that there are jack pad manufactures out their thaf are happy to help with their needs . Period.

 

Hey...I tried to help you...Aston Martins are mostly aluminum...even underneath...today I changed rotors and brakes using HSM pads...orthers use Velocity AP.

​​​​​​Both companies sell in the vendor area...both companies help Members here besides sell...

Enjoy ...I would bet this threat is deleted by moderator soon..
