Best Off-road jack without steel bumpers.

  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance this week and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

I have a 2017 Tacoma trd with a leveling kit and stock tires. I have found that my stock jack doesn’t reach high enough for me to swap my tires off-road. I don’t have steel bumpers or steel Rick sliders. What is the best jack to use in this case?View attachment 79944

A lot of people will go with a bottle jack which you can lift at different points on the vehicle to change a tire. A company called safe jack also makes extensions to put on a bottle jack.

2 ton for a corner...4 ton for a mid size on 1 end...6 ton for a full size. On 1 end. This should give you a margin of safety.

The 6 ton down side is size. It might be too big for some applications.
