Are 3 ton jack stands good for 3 tons each or 1.5 tons each?

I've never known the answer to this question.

Depends on the manufacture of the stands honestly. Most are as a pair but there are still a few manufactures that are rated by the stand.

I’d direct this question to RacinDuallie. He’s the current CompD Jack Stand Racing Champion, I believe.
