[QUOTE="FishFam JKU, post: 458676, member: 21779"] I gave up on Hi-lift (farmers jack) couple years ago. Dangerous, precarious (even in a flat garage), heavy and cumbersome. And they can’t max out a lifted JK suspension, so what’s the point? I use a HF 8ton bottle jack with an extension seat for axels and 2x8s for a base. Used it in the garage and on the trail, trust it in both cases better than a hi-lift. Need a tire change? Easy. Need to lift a tire to get unstuck? Easy. Need something you can tuck under a seat? Easy. I do own a Hi-lift. Last time I used it was to de-bead my tires😆. Also like the off-road floor jack styles. Expensive and still rather large. [ATTACH]124514[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
