I've always just rotated my vehicles tires once a week so they are not sitting on the same spot. Was just curious what everyone else does.

Get the Crawler Innovations cell block stand. Looks great and made by one of our vendors.

I have some of those screw in hooks for hanging bicycles and stuff in your garage. 2 of them hold the axles pretty good

I was actually looking at the cell block. I'm running Deuces Wild single stage foams in my honcho. How tall is the cell block? Not sure it is tall enough for my Yeti which runs Deuces Wild foams as well.

If it is too short you can put the cell block on top of a small cardboard box to get extra height. I am using that trick for my Yeti XL so I am sure you can make it work for a yeti.

I use empty folgers plastic coffee cans, one of the smaller ones, works perfect for a work stand too. Tried a duratrax stand, but didn't hold up too well.

I use pool noodles. Cut two sections the length of the truck and set the axles on them. One noodle under each side of the truck by the tires. Cheap and great for storage. Plus can be found in a number of sizes.

I use a few different things. First one is a foot stand/rest for guitars. Adjustable height and pretty cheap. i also picked up a set of aluminum jobbers from flea bay under my vintage clod. Scored a proline lexan car stand from my old hobby shop. i have a vintage racers edge stand have had for years good for 1.55 rigs. I rotate "projects" into and out of my small free stand vice i have on my work desk.

I like to reuse and recycle so i also have some foam blocs i score from work or small cardboard boxes. But my favorite storage stand Is a clodbuster tire and wheel!!
