Jack stands

My jack stands are MIA and I need new ones before I kill my fool self. How big of a stand do I need to safely hold the truck?

I would get a stand that would hold at least 4000 lbs (2 tons) or more, if you use them under each wheel..

I bought a set of 3-ton stands from Harbor Freight and they work great... not expensive, either.
