Jack Point for a Highlift Jack
Re: Jack Point for a Highlift Jack
Bottle jacks seem to work with a few pieces of wood. I usually carry a 12 ton.
What do you think of my quest to swap transfer cases to the venerable BW4472?

Re: Jack Point for a Highlift Jack
I like the Lift Mate, as it'll raise the wheel if I need to, or to place a jack stand to remove the wheel. Thanks unrreal.
A 12 ton? That seems huge. Is there a reason, related to your van, that you carry a 12 ton? Thanks.Meterpig wrote:Bottle jacks seem to work with a few pieces of wood. I usually carry a 12 ton.

The top of the jack is going to always want to lean in towards what you are jacking.

Re: Jack Point for a Highlift Jack
It seems some wheel chocks might be prudent to have in one's roadside kit.
