lifted truck problems..

what is the solution for floor jacks and lifted trucks??
my standard floor jack will not reach high enough for my truck.
i want to hear what solutions out there are lol

 

4x4 wood blocks (ideally around 12-14" long) stacked on top of the jack.

Buy one 8' 4x4 post at home Depot, cut it into (8) 12" sections, and you're covered for years. Total cost ~$25

 

Tell the wife it’s time to install a lift in the garage. To save money on oil changes.

 

just picked up a Badlands jack this morning

 

I got a HD bottle jack, opens up plenty high for my lifted Tundra w 34.8 tall tires.

 

those are nice but too damn $$$

 

where did you find yours at?

 

you got any personal photos so i can get an idea?

 

I didnt own a jack at all so it was a lot cheaper. If I had a normal floor jack already I'd probably just be getting some lumber

 

Even got a little schwifty with it and added a divit for the skid plate center bolt to sit in to use the front jack point

 

I dont recall, sure it was Amazon or harbor freight probably. But it is a heavy duty unit, big one in its own case, think a 12 ton. Love it. Portable, much easier to store than a garage jack, extends high but also adjust low enough to use for other vehicles, campers, etc.

 

Grab a 2x12 at the lumber yard and cut a few slabs. Place them under your jack to basically form a raised floor.

 

You can mod the on board jack as well to be higher (with wood bolted on or concrete plastic bases like I did).

In the garage I have a floor jack that goes at least 24” and has an extension you screw up before jacking (3” lift and 34.4” tires).

 

I have the harbor freight jack cross beam with adjustable feet on the sides. Bought for my lifted tacoma and f250, but haven't used it on my tundra yet.

 

Lowest Price Alert...Starting next Monday June 3rd for ITC members, and June 7th for the public ↓

 

Harbour freight has 12 and 20 tonne bottle jacks with extensions. They work really well. I also have a couple pieces of 2x12 just in case
