Ha ha, thanks Willie! I canceled my other one and went with that one instead. $40 more but I just traded $80 in change (I had no idea I had that much...) for an Amazon gift card. So no big deal to me!

I LOVE the Coinstar gift certificates to Amazon. I ran around the house collecting all the change in drawers, wife's old purses, laundry room etc. and came up with over $179 :dance::dance:

Just so everyone knows, the bottle jack that came with your Jeep will work fine for rigs with tires up to 35" (and maybe even to 37", not sure about that), since it lifts from the axles.

If you're just jacking up your rig to change a flat on the side of the road, it's much easier, faster and less dangerous to use the bottle jack.

The Hi-Lift can come in handy off-road, though. I've got a 48" one. :thumb:

Some accessories for Hi-Lift jacks:

Hi-Lift Off-Road Base (ORB) - alleviate jack sinkage on soft ground | Hi Lift Jack Company

Hi-Lift Handle-Keeper (HK-B/HK-R) - eliminate jack "rattling" during transportation and storage | Hi Lift Jack Company

Hi-Lift Lift-Mate (LM-100) - lift vehicle wheel directly from the wheel | Hi Lift Jack Company



And here's a video on using it. There are lots of others that show you different uses for the Hi-Lift...just google hi lift videos. Lotta good stuff there.

You got a bottle jack? Why do I not see or know where it is?

I'm going to have to talk to my dealer if I didn't get one and was supposed to...
I agree. Mine came with a scissor jack. Big difference!

Really?

It should've been in a slot under the panel that covers the rear storage compartment just inside the tailgate...that's where mine is, anyway.

Could come in handy. :)
Ha, yeah. I actually called them and was like, "Dudes." (Yup really said that) and try drove it out to me :D

I'd much rather have the bottle jack, too. Maybe that's why I typed it...wishful thinking. :D
I kept referring to it as a bottle jack when Eric and I were doing the lift. Finely broke it out to keep the front axle level during install. Was like "what the F is this thing?"

Fail :rofl:
