    Jacking is inherently unsafe. Should be using a lift for safety.

    That said I try to be as safe as I can in the situations that require jacking. I had to jack a combine once with a Hi-Lift jack. Uh yeah. That was NOT an example of safe jacking. It was full.

    Found one from CAT that would probably be better quality. 553D46EB-3DF5-4DFB-B92C-3C8103B24BF7.jpg

    Ive seen those in use on the trail before. Personally not a huge fan. They are big and heavy. You are limited in total jack up-travel more so than a typical bottle jack because you dont have the adjuster at the top. And they only had 2 or maybe three notches for the 'jack stand' portion to work with. At least the ones I saw

    Edit, the 2nd one you posted solves my 2nd point

    Not sure. I heard SUV was the cause and they had some sort of Medical emergency.
