EcoPower Rotating 1/10 & 1/8 Aluminum Car Stand w/Shock Holder
The EcoPower Aluminum Car Stand is a great solution to simplify maintenance on 1/10 and 1/8 scale trucks, cars, buggies and monster trucks.
The stand features black anodized aluminum construction, with a bearing supported rotating head that offers 8 locking positions and 45° of rotation in-between clicks. The locking mechanism is a simple ball ratchet design that never needs maintenance and should never fail. The system works best with vehicles around 4 pounds (1.8 kg) or more to engage the mechanism. The rotating top plate also features foam pads to grip the chassis better and to help provide protection from scratches.
When it is time to rebuild shocks, the top plate also features shock holes to hold four 1/10 and four 1/8 scale shock cylinders, as well as four shock shaft holders, should that be your preference.
NOTE: This stand will work with large scale trucks, like the Traxxas X-Maxx, with the tires removed. Otherwise, the tires will rest on the surface.
Features:
- Ideal for 1/10 & 1/8 scale applications
- Dual-Bearing supported for friction free movement
- Robust black anodized aluminum construction
- 8-Position (45°) rotating aluminum top plate with foam pads
- Extra height (4.5"/11.4cm tall) design accommodates large suspension truggies and monster trucks
- Dropped center section in top plate to accommodate models with uneven chassis
- Holds four shock cylinders and shock shafts for 1/10 & 1/8 scale shocks
- Rubber feet in the base prevents movement during use

Bravo on this new car stand! This is THE BEST 1/8 & 1/10 car stand I've seen and owned. After owning similar stands, I can say that this thing very well built. I really like the width and length of the bottom of the stand because it makes it very stable. I also like the detent positions in every 45 degrees of rotation. This is something that is missing from every stand I've owned. It's so nice to rotate the top to a position and have it stay there and not keep moving. The base also feels very rugged! No thin sheet metal here! I highly recommend this stand. Can't say enough good things about it.

I finally found the perfect truggy stand, i picked it up from my local hobby shop. As you know, trying to find a good Truggy stand that’s not 2 feet tall, or 1/2 an inch too short has been a struggle. Seriously, check this thing out. Plus it’s also great for buggy.

This car stand is Excellent.
I use this with my stadium truck and short course truck, they both fit perfect. the stand gives you enough height to be able to easily rotate it around to work on any side of the truck you need. also has super handy shock rebuild holder to make one less thing you have to bring to the track. fits in the small drawer of my pit bag and is good quality.
A Good buy if your looking for a nice car stand.

The best car stand ever, just wish it was taller to keep tires off the ground when storing my crawler. I have 2.2" tires, if you had 1.9 you would be fine.

Best car stand out in my opinion. I originally went for one of the plastic car stands with the metal center piece and stopped using the thing since I didn't like it. This stand however gets much more use. The fact that as you rotate your car and it locks into place automatically is awesome.

First off, I dont want this to come off as a negative review. Only reason I am adding this is to inform future purchasers of the reality. The stand is made well and spins just fine.
#1 My only issue with this stand is how strong the locking mechanism is. Its a simple spring and ball bearing that falls into a hole - but the spring is strong - and takes some force to spin. 1/8 scale nitro buggy with engine removed and it wont spin freely by just holding onto the buggy. No way will this spin easily with any 1/10 scale electric vehicle (without grabbing the platform). And YES you can remove the spring and bearing to make it spin 100% free but this isnt the greatest as your vehicle just spins randomly and is more a pain than not. SOLUTION: I just removed the spring and shortened it to lessen the spring load. spins much easier now and still locks when u want.
#2 stand will hold 16mm 1/8 scale shocks... but barely. the holes are not 16mm in diameter so the bodies will not sit all the way down flush with the collars. it still works, but not how you wish. I will be making my holes bigger to have a little better fit.

Just got my Eco-Power stand in today and I must say that I'm thoroughly impressed. I've always been the one to 'poo-poo' the idea of a pit stand. Most that are cost-inclusive just have spinning tops, and how am I suppose to work on something and all it wants to do is go around in circles? Not to mention I could and have just grabbed any small box lying around and used that as a competent stand. First and foremost this thing has a sprung ball bearing that stops the top from spinning when working on a project, yet is effortless when trying to rotate the top for better positioning! No stupid locking mech, No stupid free spinning top. Solid Aluminum construction and ball bearing FTW!

Best Car Stand I have found for the money. Car stays where you want it to and doesn't spin around. Tough as nails. I will be ordering another.

Great stand that fits my cars.
I like the detents so it is easy to turn the vehicle without having to untighten or tighten a bolt.
I use a 2x wood block to raise it up for my UDR.

Terrific stand. Strong. I greased ball bearing. Moves better.
Not for less than 1:10 scale. My vaterra ascender 72 Chevy fits. Just. Nice and solid. Highly recommend.
Thinking of one more ?

Perfect stand for every rtr kit out there. Like it so much i bought 4 of them. Great for working on and also great for storing or displaying your vehicles. Also good for your tires cause they wont develop flat spots. Very sturdy. Cant say enough.

Does not work with Traxxas Maxx due to the hump in middle of chassis( One reviewer said it’s great for the Maxx!) I guess I will build it up with blocks for it to work. Other then that it’s a nice stand.
