J-Hooks Set

So, this is now my THIRD set of j hooks for my Amstaff 1/2 rack. The hooks that came were too round and too deep. The 2nd set were ok, but the back part too shallow and everytime I reracked the bar from squatting, it was hard to tell if I got it on right.

No problem with these, due to the tall back. You know when you slam the bar against the rack you're in.

However, the front stops are unnecessarily too high. (see the pics) Makes lifting the bar out/back in a bit difficult.

The 2nd set was perfect for that, so I might keep them for bench pressing, of which a tall back is not all important as in squatting. All the hooks need to do is stop the bar from rolling out.... ..why o why do they make hooks that bury the bar in front?

Still, on sale, a good buy. I like the plastic protectors for noise and bar protection, something the other 2 don't have.
