Jacks and jack stands

I desperately need a decent quality floor jack to lift the taco. My old one isn't cutting it anymore. I've had mixed luck with harbor freight tools. This looks like it's a good product but I don't know squat about jacks. Also I need jack stands do you guys recommend ones which go higher than 16"?

 

I have that same one in 3 ton and it works great, also got some 6-ton jack stands from them, 23.75" in max lift height

 

HFT 3 ton low pro jack with a 4x4 block of wood and 6 ton stands FTW!

 

OP that looks like the one I have and it lifts my truck fine, both front and back diffs. I have a 2" or so lift with 265/75R16 tires.

 

What jacks do you guys have in your truck in case of a flat?

 

A spare

 

Sorry sounded silly but this is my first truck and it has a 1" lift I know doesnt sound much but was looking to get a nice jack to carry with me in the bed.

 

Hi-lift For the win

 

Same although I wouldn't use it on the street

 

Hi-Lift for the win

 

My truck is a daily and was looking for suggestions to a good side of the road change a spare jack.

 

Agreed. Let me rephrase. Hi-lift FTW when the bottle jack won't reach.

 

Iirc I have some tall SOBs made by ac delco...... Jack is craftsman plus a two by four

 

I bought the 14"-23" 3 ton jack stands and the the 4 ton Jack. I think I'll leave the Jack in the box until after Black Friday in case Sears has a 4 ton at a similar price.

 

"Jack in the box" he says

 

I have the HF 2.5ton model. I've had it for 2-3 years now. It's still working good. I dont have issues raising the truck but I do usually end up having to put something underneath the jack stands so I get the appropriate height. I personally don't like to have the jack stands on the last notch which is why I put something under it.
