Don't know Jack....

I was lucky enough to get myself stuck in 2 ft. of mud a few weeks ago and in the process of getting unstuck broke my stock jack. I was ill prepared to say the least. Any good ideas for a replacement jack, wether it being a scissor, bottle hi-lift to buy as a replacement. Thx

Replace that one with a new one so you are not missing that!!!(under the pass. seat right?)

Then go buy yourself a HI-LIFT and mount it on your front bumper...........

i've got a 12t bottle jack with a home built axle cradle. it is the exact size for the rear axle tubes, but will work fine on the front too.. $30 for the jack and a few hours scrounging up parts to make the cradle [piece of 5"(???) pipe and some 1.5" pipe and some welding and grinding..]

I quit using my High lift years ago....there isn't anywhere to use it on todays trucks without doing more damage than it would cost to pay a wrecker to pull me out....I guess you could stick it in your recever and hope it dosn't roll forward.....buy a stocker for flats and a winch for getting stuck.
