    If you lift under the control arm, it'll go plenty high enough. Or what I do at home is lift under the front skid plate, with a 4x4 block of wood in between the jack and skid.

    Yes, There is a jack point in the center of the skid plates on the front crossmember. And I dont want to use a piece of wood, I just wanted to know if anyone knew how high the jack needs to be able to go at a minimum to lift from that point and have the front wheels off the ground.
