SUNEX TOOLS 1522A 22-Ton Jack Stands, Pair

Across the reviewers we read, the Sunex 1522A occupies a specific niche: heavy trucks, RVs, dually pickups, and shop work where 3-ton and 6-ton stands simply don't have the base, saddle, or capacity for the job. The pair supports 22 tons combined, uses a pin-type adjustment, and ships with a flat base built for shop floors. A walmart.com verified-purchase reviewer specifically calls out preferring "pin-through" stands for the safety story, which mirrors the broader specialist-community preference for non-ratcheting designs.

Retailer product pages from sunextools.com and northerntool.com align on the spec sheet, and the small but consistent Amazon review base (4.7 across 173) doesn't surface the kind of weld-quality complaints that pop up around budget heavy-duty stands. A r/harborfreight thread we read on the broader category notes the gap in the market between 6-ton and 22-ton stands, with reviewers generally accepting that if you need above 6 tons you're going to pay for it.

The honest cons: this is an expensive, heavy, single-purpose tool. At over $230 per pair and a tall minimum height, it's wrong for sedans and crossovers, and reviewers describe it as awkward to store in a one-bay garage. It's also overkill, in capacity terms, for almost any consumer vehicle.
