Using the stock jack when replacing a flat tire. Holy hell that was terrifying.

    Hi lift's are useless unless you have somewhere to grab like sliders, hitch or a real bumper, and even then they are sketchier than the oem.

    Owners manual specifically says to use the frame and axle tube. Not the LCA or U-Bolt cup.

    Also. Too everyone using the bottle Jack. Use a piece of wood or rubber between the frame and piston head. The weight of the truck on the the small Jack head will actually cause bending at the frame lifting point indicated in the manual.
