ONe thing I have done over the past year  as I have been rebuilding my TR6
is to use good, solid short lengths of 8x8 or 10x10 lumber, and place them
directly under the frame  right next to the jack stands.  Place them
across the frame for stability, but laying flat on the floor.  Four pieces
of solid timber give good support, sometimes with thinner pieces of wood
as shims.

I know jackstands are solid, but why take a chance?
