    I just ordered a hilift jack. I was wondering what size you guys were buying. i got the 60 inch with the 48 inch lift height. i ordered the bumper lift to and with that i was worried the 38 inch lift height of the smaller model it wouldnt be enough being that i will be lifting from the bumper. i guess better safe than sorry it was only 2$ more :D

    You can jack from the tow-hitch, too. But, be extremely careful.

    I carry a 48", but I'd carry a 60" if I could fit it in the bed. A 60" won't fit left to right or even longways in a shortbed. Hell a 48" barely does.

    Plus, with a 60", if you ever use the HiLift as a winch, you get more pulls between having to use the tensioner and re-attaching the chain.
