A single jack stand with swappable rubber and axle tops for a home garage or shop. Plan on buying two, since the kit holds one stand, and confirm the height range, which the listing reports inconsistently.

Overview
A removable top post is the core of the ESCO jack stand kit: swap the rubber padded flat top for the axle top to match a frame rail or a round axle. A locking pin holds the chosen height, and circular base pads steady it on the floor.
Two top posts on one stand let a single support cover both a painted frame rail and a round axle. The kit is one stand only, and the listed height figures contradict each other, so measure your lift points before ordering.
Who it's for
Home garages and small shops that lift by the frame on one car and by the axle on the next get both saddles in one stand. Drivers who need a pair ready to go should order two kits or choose a paired set.
Pros and cons
- Rubber flat top protects the frame
- Axle top cradles round surfaces
- Locking pin included
- Powder coated finish resists rust
- Only one stand per kit
- Listed heights contradict each other
- Spec sheet load field conflicts with the rating
Performance notes
Stability comes from the circular base pads and the locking pin engaging the post, so a level, hard floor matters most. The saddle choice governs grip: the rubber top protects painted frames, while the axle top cradles round axles and tubes.

Frequently asked questions
How tall does the ESCO 10498-K jack stand adjust?
The listing is inconsistent: it gives a minimum height of 13.2 inches and a maximum lifting height of 12 inches, which cannot both be right. Confirm the range with ESCO before relying on it for your vehicle.
Why does the ESCO 10498-K spec sheet show a 6 pounds load capacity?
The description rates the stand at 3 tons, and the 6 pounds field appears to be a listing error. Rely on the 3 ton rating and confirm with ESCO if in doubt.
Will the ESCO jack stand rust in a damp garage?
The description says the stand has a powder coated finish to prevent rusting.
