I used one of these:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0162BSK0M

I cut off some of the top to make like roof shape, so they were easier to place on rear most front lifting point.. get to both wheels using one jack placement.

Just keep an eye on them, overtime / with use, I've seen those tear in half down the center.

Mine a bit chewed up already from sometimes missing the slot, chamfering the top helped, since its easier to place. It just about sits flush w lower surface of skirt on ZLE.


Just for this year, wheels will get swapped out 20 times. Another 2 once snows go on.

You use the rearmost front ones to jack the car and set your jack stands under the front and rear ones, the chassis is so stiff both wheels come off the ground. Let me cost you guys some money, these stands are tier one and the cradles fit the pads like a glove, they also won't sink into your asphalt driveway like conventional stands.

Yeah those are pricy-fancy. Like these:
https://www.tooltopia.com/esco-10498...RoCjrcQAvD_BwE
if you want to spend >$100/pair and look good doing it.

But a scrap of 1/2” plywood or mdf always worked well for me under a $20 set of Craftsman stands on softer surfaces.

With the vert you end up putting the stand under the xbrace bracket anyway. The lift points are really only used for jacking. And the concave cup on my trolley jack fits the ZL1 Addons lift points perfectly.
