jack clearance height...

So what the height the jack needs to extend to in order to clear my Tacoma ground clearance? i have a 09 DCOR.
thx

 

4" to 30" depending on if your lowered or lifted

 

Mine is not lifted... I think i asked it incorrectly sorry... how far should the jack extend to help support it?

 

Measure from flat ground to the frame rail just below and behind the cab and add 6-8 inches.

I've been a big fan of the all-in-ones, personally. Ive used this guy on my trailer in the dirt:

 

how much is it? I like the pro eagle jack, and looking to a good cheaper jack stand w/locking pins so it doesn't crush me! ha

 

Looks like current price is 60 bucks or so. I bought it at 45 bucks, you might watch it to see if it goes on sale.

I use a 21" hydraulic jack with a piece of 2x6 lumber, and it's enough to lift up the front tire when jacking on the main frame rails. I have Icon extended-travel coilovers and 32" tires.

 

OH MAN I didn't think of using the lumber to add on! See this forum I tell ya... awesome!!!! thank you!

 

They make extensions for floor jacks.

 

HF's long reach will lift my truck easily, no extra extensions required - but it's too heavy to carry around daily.

24 1/4" max height

 

I second this recommendation. Works great for stock and lifted tacos! You can usually find a coupon to kick it down to $169 or $139 I cant remember which.

 

whoa... this dayton is awesome!!! do this usually have it at the store or i need to order online??! boy I like to find a coupon as well... I love a great deal!!!

 

Doesn’t look like there are any valid coupons for it.

Is that the pro eagle extension?

 

Yes.
They make two: 8", 15"

 

I think taller jack stands would be helpful. My jack will get the wheels off the ground from the front cross member or the pumpkin. But when I put the jack stands under the frame it settles back down and the wheels can touch. Both jack and stands are Craftsman.

Never lift a vehicle by the differential. Things can bend and that gets expensive. Likewise the leaf springs u bolt plate. These things are not designed to handle the load in the direction exerted.

Frame only unless you have dedicated lifting points.
