Concrete blocks are "dicey" and cinder blocks a no-no. If using
concrete blocks, put a board on top so no edge of the frame or
suspension nicks the blosk.
A cinder block can disintegrate with little provocation and no
warning.
Thanks.
I also had a cast metal jack stand cave in. It was rated at 3000
pounds I think, and the whole car weighed only 3000 pounds. No one
was under it when it collapsed. I told the store I bought it at, but
I doubt they cared.
