    What size bottle jack should I get for my 2010 Toyota Tacoma with a 3inch lift and 32inch tires?

    I don't want to get a high lift jack because I don't have and lifting points to use it on my truck.

    I don't want to use my stock bottle jack and put pieces of would under it to make it work because it could get sketchy.

    If you jack the truck up from the rear axle or the lower control arm then the stock jack will work fine even without blocks of wood. At these point lift has no effect and your tires aren't way over stock size.

    Certain sellers have bottle jack extensions or just bigger jacks. this one is an example.

    those don't work so great with some of the thicker aluminum wheels. i felt way too sketchy when i test fit a wheel mate on my sport wheels. the hooks just aren't deep enough. much better fit for steel wheels (as pictured)

    Like Wheelspinner said, you won't need a different jack to change 32's under normal conditions. You've only raised the rear axle or control arm height like an inch or less. The factory jack lifts from the axle or control arm.
