Need help choosing Hi-Lift Jack size
I am going to get a hi lift jack but I am unsure If I should get the 48" or 60". My truck is now lifted 6" over stock (2wd xlt with coils).
Anyone buy the 48" and wish they got the 60"? The 60 isnt much more but I wouldnt be able to keep it in the cab very easily.

60"
i have the 48, and with only the 3" BL lifting it from the tow hooks up front even to get a wheel off the ground, put it at the higher end of its range.. now im up 8"+tires, i may end up selling it and getting a 60"
but like ^he^ said.. theres not many places you can jack from

did you add jack points?
they made an adapter for wheels, hitches, and tubing (rocksliders, tube bumper)
