[GLW]

Any suggestions for a bottle jack to replace the onboard scissor jack in our RR?

I carry a bottle jack, a racing floor jack and best of all, a Farm jack. If you're buried or in a hole a farm jack is best. I've had two flats and never used the supplied jack.

I carry a cheap Harbor Freight one

in a Home Depot HDX 7 gallon bin:

along with blocks of wood, rags, and miscellaneous small recovery items. You must always carry any hydraulic bottle jack upright and leave the bleed screw closed, otherwise the oil can leak out past the orings..

I'm thinking about getting this one with the build in safety stand:

I think this would be ideal. Thanks!

May consider the Harbor Freight off road floor jack. Comes with big, hd wheels and a very nice height adapter.

I bought the 2 or 2.5 ton aluminum one an it's a little big and bulky to carry around all the time. It might work for off road trips. It's not that powerful, I bought a 4 ton to lift the whole side of my '19 ranger for tire rotations but it would handle one corner for a flat change.

Is it wrong my brain read this post title as "Bottle Of Jack for RR"?

I'm thinking about trying to find a screw bottle jack for a Lexus GX at a junk yard. They are basically bulletproof.

I used a bottle jack on my Superduty 4x4 but haven't looked much under the front of the Ranger. On the SD there was a flat spot on the knuckle where it fit securely. Where do you place it on the Ranger?

Here's another interesting option. Looks like it had different cradles included.

Similar to what I posted but this one is 2 ton.
