What Tire Jack do you travel with on your 37?

[jm77]

Pro Eagle CO2 jack is in my opinion the best option if not going for a full size floor jack. Can’t beat the size, speed, and ability to also use it to inflate tires.

This may be off base but so is my brain at times. I was driving few years ago my then brand new Macan Turbo to a freelance job for a new company, my first assignment. Waze took me a wacky way and as I got on highway I hit something that blew my right rear tire. The gods were shining on me that day. We have HELP (highway emergency local patrol) trucks sponsored by insurance companies that are spread around. One happened to come up behind me within 30 seconds of me pulling over. He pulled out what looked like a small inner tube or balloon, stuck it under, hooked up a hose to his truck and it lifted the corner of my car right up. He changed my tire and I was on my way in under ten minutes. He then refused fifty bucks. I don’t know what it was but it sure was efficient.

Sounds like an airbag jack?

There is this style as well… seen one used with the jeep crowd once. Some use exhaust and some are pneumatic or both, i believe.

Get the hooks that allow you to lift from the wheel so you don't scratch the paint.

I have them good sir.

So some Google FU and I have found a couple of options:
The Safe Jack products are well made, I have used them for years when I did serious off roading. Bottle jacks are much safer than hi-lift jacks.

And the ARB bag jack looks nice, although I have not used them personally. However, I love my ARB products so I would trust them also:

Jack Help Pro Eagle or something else?

It's tough to drop $500 plus on a jack, but I can't imagine getting a flat tire off-road or on the side of a dangerous road and using the standard jack that comes with the truck. I also do my own tire rotations, so I will definitely need something since my craftsman 2 ton isn't able to lift high...

Last Floor Jack Post

I have the option today of getting the Pro Eagle 2 ton beast for $450 and no tax new in box. Found it on CraigsList. Guy is selling a few of them and it seems like they may have "fallen off the back of a truck" or maybe he gets them for wholesale. Whatever the case. $450 and no tax when it is...

Jack Stands

With the influx of new members, and people doing their own work, thought we should start a jack stand thread. What jack and jack stands are you using? Which ones are trash and you regret buying?

BINGO!!!

BINGO!!!

I was shocked that hadn't come up yet

I’d recommend the HF knockoff jack of the pro eagle if you can fit it in the vehicle with all of your other gear. If not the other options listed above might be a better choice.

Any experience with the Badlands 3 Ton Off-road Jack at Harbor Freight?
