There are options, it all comes to ho much you are willing to pay, the one on the picture is around $600 USD



, but I am just going to hack it and do this

 

I bought thinking the same thing but no.
The top is adjustable has 3 slots where you put the pin in, that 21" of lift is on the highest pin. Peter you might be able to get away with it as you're on 33s soon to be 35s.

For me with the lift I have and the 31.6" tires it was too low to get it to that last notch and still fit the jack under the frame.
These will get your wheel about a 1/2 off the ground at full lift but the stand feature cannot lock in at that height its like an inch lower. So it somewhat works. Could also just be the extended travel.


Still find it useful though. I use mine now for when I do the skids. I use it to hold the subframe where the transmission is.

When lifting the truck now I just put my floor jack under the whole front skid right near where the factory lift point is lol. Messaged Mobtown and they said its no problem at all to lift from the skid which would make sense given the strength of it.

 

SAFEJACK DUDE

I bought mine to fit the toyota jack. but it comes with a flat platform, U shaped to go around the axle and I only opted for the 3" extension, but you can get a 6" and adjustable and I'll likely be ordering the adjustable soon.

All the parts work with a 6ton bottle jack and I have the adaptor for toyota jack.

the floor jack I have has that attachment on it just no big wheels. Works fine for driveway.

 

and then there's this attachment.

Its not really a cheap option but works great.

I've used it with bottle jacks too, and can put the bottle jack on a hilift base for off road.


I think when I ordered all this stuff was like $160 shipped to my door.
Not even sure if I need the long adjustable extension.

I need to go by PA one day with the stuff and try it with that 10ton double ram bottle jack they sell.

Its meant for 6ton so not sure if the ram is really different size. So if I can use it with the 10ton it would be great to use. Hell even with the regular 6ton might work. Just not sure the lift range on a 6ton vs the 10ton double ram.

 

That’s decent. Worst case I can use a piece of wood. See how she goes.

 

Yea I understand what you are saying. There are videos showing how the jack functions, e.g.



I will have my 2x6 (1.5" thick) between the jack and the frame. If that doesn't work, I can always modify the jack, like drilling an extra hole between the 2nd and 3rd holes. Do you know the dimensions of the top piece? Wonder if a class II hitch insert will fit in there?

 

i do not sorry, and its too fuckin cold to go check lol

 

Add 12" wheels

 

Everyone working this week? I'm off until the new year. I'm helping flood natural rink at the local park. It's crispy out there.

 

I had this week off, go back on the 2nd.

Waiting for a few deliveries today, Husky liners, molle back panel for the passenger seat.. hehehe

 

Mine came in this morning. The square tube is 1.25" wide inside, exactly like a class II hitch:



When it gets warmer, I will try it out on my truck. If necessary, it looks safe to drill an extra hole between the 2nd and 3rd holes of the insert, clocked 90 deg apart as shown by the white dot:

 

Good to know. Could definitely modify that.

 

^Yep, and if you ever need more lift than the top hole position can provide, it should be easy to drop in a class II hitch insert to get more height. Something like this:

 

I'll bring mine on the 6th if you want to see it. It's pretty big might not be the best to store.

 

Wife and I found a spot to engage 4Hi, I still can not get the smile off my face.



omg snow wheeling

 

All good man. Don’t go out of your way.

 

I say go with 35's.

... you had difficulty finding a spot in North Bay ???!!!

 

When by yourself, its easy to just say fuck it and get stuck. So yes it is sometimes in the winter difficult to obtain such a sweet spot.

 

Well, after last night, I would say bring your sled instead.

 

Sounds great! I hope there is more snow than last year. Can't wait.............
