Jack upgrade

[ramv]

Having had all types of hand jacks (shop, hydraulic, scissor, screw, hi lift) the sweet spot For my daily driver seems like a mechanical jack that i can run with a 20V impact would be most effective.

Does anyone have a suggest on a particular unit? Looking at 2-2.5 ton scissors they seem to be very car or RV oriented. Is there an obvious choice ?

Thanks

Get yourself a surplus humvee scissor jack of eBay. It’s 3 ton and lifts pretty damn high. You’ll need to do a little tinkering to make it work but it’s a great little unit all together. Cheap too. It uses a round peg to key into the lower control arms on the hummer, so you’ll need to add some kind of jack pad or cradle to adapt it to the solid axles. Swag off-road has a cradle they make for bottle jacks that works pretty well. Also you can weld a piece in to the input that is sized the same as your lugnuts and it makes it super convenient. Not sure how the newer trucks are setup, but the factory jack location on my third gen is under the front passenger seat, and it’s sized perfectly for my Milwaukee 18v impact to strap in with a lug nut socket and extension

Awesome. Those look super stout

Went with an oeM JK jack with an adapter to the impact off Amazon. Factory for Rams overseas (same part number).
