This may be a stupid question but I'm looking at getting a Hi-Lift Jack my 2013 Jeep Rubicon 3 1/2 inch lift 37 inch tires. I'm looking at the cheaper 49 inch Hi-Lift jack model number H/LHL-485. The RED one.
Is this Jack adequate.


Or somebody else recommend a different brand Jack?

 

yes it is

 

I bought a Hi-Lift but never use it, instead I use my factory jack with the extension. It fit inside with all the other components.

 

Great thanks

 

yep you can jack yourself off all day with that thing

 

I'd rather spend $50 on something that will actually be used.....unless you're just going for the look of carrying one around.

 

I use the tractor supply copy. It might not hold up as well as a Hi-Lift, but I don't need it all that often.

 

Buy a bottle jack. You'll spend hundreds less and actually find it useful.

 

What lift points will you be using?

I sold the hi-lift that I never used. Bought a cheap Harbor Freight bottle jack and carry a few 2x4 scraps for a base/extra height. Works just fine.

 

We're missing essential info. The bottle jack is a great idea but doesn't help winch you off of a rock.


What's the purpose for purchasing a new jack?
