Do I need a limit strap for this?

    This is me on jack stands (see image).

    I don't jump the truck, but I do get full extension sometimes when wheeling slow stuff in the forest. It's pretty jarring when it happens.

    Should I worry about wearing out that boot and therefore go limit straps, or not bother?

    I would do it. I plan on getting some soon for mine. Esecially since you have a rubber boot.
