I got a great deal on a 60" Extreme at an off road expo for the same price of a 48". :ya:

The object of a Hi-Lift jack is not to change a tire - it's to get you out of a sticky situation. If you are using the jack to change a tire, DON'T. Your JK won't be stable.
A Hi-Lift jack is great for winching sideways out of a tight jamb, lifting a corner that's already light a bit higher to stack rocks, and a variety of other useful situations. Don't know how you plan to use yours, but it's a great stand-by for impossible "stuck" situations. You don't need your tires off the ground - you need to get un-stuck. 48" is plenty. 2 cents. : 2cents : |

2 cents. : 2cents : look the photo of the 60" hi lift. Imagine the same situation with a 48" hi lift... I was stuck in very deep mud at the Terrebonne' s Trail in 2008, a guy had a 60" hi lift, and there was about 6" left... Attachment 680853 |
