Can I use my stock jack on my axel to change out a flat if I get one? I have the 3 1/2" lift extension, (whatever you call the orange thing you slip under your stock jack), and I wanna keep from carrying my Hi Lift jack if I'm not offroading. The axle is the only place left for the stocker but I don't wanna screw it up. Thanks!

 

you'll prob be okay, but I would recommend you get a cheap bottle jack and call it a day.

 

2 short pieces of 2X6 in the storage compt. will help, and be good in sand too.

 

Assuming you're talking about the AEV jack base, yes, you will be fine. That's what I use, works perfectly.

 

X2 on the AEV jack base.

 

The lift size does not affect distance from ground to bottom of axle, only 1/2 the change in tire size does. the jack stability stand will make up most of the difference, you'll be fine.

 

Call me crazy, but why not just give what you have a try in your driveway on a nice warm afternoon? Better than on the side of a busy road, in the dark...obviously raining...mad at yourself because you took everybody else's word for what will or won't work. Just sayin. <shrug>

 

Yep x2 to that. Better in the driveway than on the side of the road.
