Steeda Can Crusher Install and Impressions

[rvlyssup]

Its just not a must have.

Its a definite must have for tinkerers; takes less than a minute to jack up one side compared to fumbling around with pinch weld jacking points or hoping they don't collapse. $120 very well spent IMHO.

Ditto. I think the one time I jacked up the car without them, I spent more time looking for "safe" places to put the jack and jack stands leaving me with good access to the work area than it took me to install these rails and then jack up the car.

Exactly! I can have the car up in the air within 4 pumps of my jack and 20 seconds later.

I've probably had the car in the air almost a hundred times by now, and haven't been worried. Should I be?

You shouldn't be worried. You should be terrified!

Well, just when I thought I was done with mods..... Another must have from Steeda. Going on the Christmas list now. Hopefully Santa will be good to me!

If we could all be cool like you. You don't find these handy, great, many of us do.

These pinch welds, what are their failure/folding rates?

I've only lifted the car a few times and had the jack stands on the pinch welds to hold the car up. Never thought anything of it, since thats basically what the book says to jack up

These look nifty, i don't plan on jacking it up anytime soon but will keep my eye on these to be added!

This was what I was wondering? Do they fail? I haven't seen it on here, yet most of you are defending these to a T.

On another note, put a hockey puck on my race jack and these would work really well. Won't need til track season starts up next spring at VIR, but still, is a little time saved worth over a hundred bucks? Again, like I said, I will probably end up with them on the car though.

They don't fail, there are just times where you'd prefer to lift the entire side of the vehicle.

Is the time saved worth a few schmeckles over $100, absolutely. What is your time worth? Mine is priceless! I will always make more money, but can always use any extra time in the garage with the family. Any extra time at the track, actually on the track.

Now that I have them, I will remove my wheels to clean them much more often. I will likely paint my calipers on my next day off. I will recycle more cans. Winner winner, chicken dinner!

Hope you understand that I'm just having some fun with your responses. No offense intended.

 

[Impulsed7]

I completely understand.

Have you jacked from the rear pinch weld on one side? With my eco the whole side comes up?

edit: but still try the hockey puck on top of your jack idea, works wonders and doesn't blemish the rails.

Looks good and glad I can do it without lifting! I have a set on order and will put them on before Xmas!

I know right? I have to get a set of these. Great product Steeda.

Lol! Having to lift would be irony redefined.

So is this the first installment of "Will it Crush?!"

I want to pickup these for my car. Hate using the pinch welds all the time.
