Seriosly?!? Please tell me this is a joke. Read your other jack thread you started 3 hours ago, several people chimed in recommending the AEV jack base.

The stock jack will work on a Jeep with 34" tires. The axle tube on a Jeep with 34" tires is only one inch taller than a Rubicon model. A square of 2X4 under the jack base will help.

Do you need the use of a jack for removing wheels or for jacking the frame to do suspension work?

I Have the jack base. Used with 37s on flat ground no problem. Also stows away nicely in the rear cubby

You have 34 foot tires? How do you fit those with only 2.5 inch lift? You must have serious rubbing..

Yes the AEV jack base is great. But you should jack from the axle, so even if you have a lift the stock one should work.
