What do you do for a jack?

I have 33s on 15" rims and when I had a completely flat tire I had a hard time getting my bottle jack to fit under the axle as it was just a bit to tall, and then when I did, it didn't have enough ram to lift the tire high enough to be able to put the new, inflated tire on. I used my hi-lift then, but now I keep an RV type scissor jack that will flatten to about 5 inches and raise to about 2 feet. It only has a 5K capacity but that's plenty to pick one corner of the Bronco up. It's quicker and more stable than my hi-lift. I have mine strapped to my roll bar.

Here on the farm we consider those High Lifts as just to dangerous. So I do have a Half Cab and I USE one of those little HDY Jacks from Walmart that is a bout a 1 1/2 or 2 ton These come in a plastic box. I strap it down on top of one of the rear fenders. Also being said that I'm on my farm I also always carry a 20 ton Bottle. It usually just rattles around in that little gap behind the read fender. Along with a 20 ft chain. AND I always have 2x6 blocks.

Whatever jack you decide to use make sure it is securely fastened down. Under a seat or wedged in somewhere won't cut it in a rollover or accident.
