Anyone buy or know where to get some pinch weld jack pads for lifting our cars?

Some have mentioned hockey pucks end up failing, so maybe something like this:
https://www.amazon.com/Single-Extra-Universal-Rubber-Adapter/dp/B06X99ZVKZ/
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

That looks good and I'll just have to measure the opening at the pinch weld and see what will fit.  Thanks

I tried them once.  Never did it again.  Pinch welds work fine for me.

Huh?  Those are pads to use on your hydraulic jack so you can lift at the factory jacking points.  (pinch welds)

Yeah, I bought one of those pads to try out.  I didn't think it made any difference at all.  Plus they started to warp after only one use, so i just ditched them.  Just use the jack like i've always used it.
