"textContent": "A caster having a spring feature configured to compress along the stem of the caster when subject to load. The spring achieves maximum compression when subjected to a maximum specified load value. One or more casters may be used in tandem with a jackstand apparatus. When the jackstand is presented without any additional force, the combined spring force of all casters utilized is sufficient to support the weight of the jackstand without achieving maximum compression. When subject to a sufficiently large additional force, each of the springs will achieve maximum compression, and the jackstand apparatus will interact with the supporting terrain directly, resulting a direct transfer of additional load to the terrain through the jackstand apparatus. Some embodiments may comprise a distinct jackstand and cart configuration. Some embodiments may comprise an integrated configuration.",
