An adjustable weight supporting apparatus is provided with a horizontal member, vertical member and legs. The weight supporting apparatus may be used to support the weight of an automobile or other object. The horizontal member may be placed on a lifting device, which may be lifted to contact an object. Legs and the vertical member may be added to the horizontal member to support the weight without a lifting force, which may be temporarily fixed in place with one or more pin. The horizontal member may include an elongated portion and a cuff. Various aspects of the apparatus may be adjusted to support a desired object at a desired height and/or footprint to provide sufficient access under the object.
