    Looking for a Jack recommendation for my SR stock size tires, 2WD, that’s easier to use than the scissor Jack that came with the truck. To keep in truck in case of need side of road

    If you’re gonna want something to keep into your truck, I’d reccomend a bottle jack. Lots of reputable manufacturers make them. Plenty of places to jack for a flat repair or something of the like. Most have an extendable top piece. Just make sure that you’re jacking on a thick piece of metal, because if you’re jacking on something smaller, you could leave a dent in the medal since the force is applied at a smaller area. Know from experience haha

    Something as a broad base for the ground to prevent the jack sinking. A 1 ft long 2x8 or 2x6 section as a broader base in case of mud or soft earth.

    Do not forget your Viair 88P (if you do not have a pump) and a NOCO GB40 to jumpstart if necessary.

    Two pieces of a 2x6 fit nicely under my passenger seat. They are necessary now with my 2” lift and larger tires.
