Title: Hi-Lift jack
Post by: Anonymous on July 14, 2005, 10:45:12 AM
That Hi-Lift jack I bought! You guys said I needed some type of adaptor to use it on my ZJ? Or where is a safe area to use the jack on the car? A little more detail please fellas so I can get one.

Look up the code "Wrangler TJ"

Alternative is "CJ" or "YJ"

soz mate, no idea what adaptor you need... I was advided to avoid those wheel straps though....

The lift mate (wheel straps)  http://www.hi-lift.com/products/liftmate.htm (http://www.hi-lift.com/products/liftmate.htm) work fine, easier to lift the wheel and axle directly than lift the body loads before you start to lift the wheel off the ground.  Of course you will then need an axle stand if you want to take the wheel off.

I think Owen is talking about the bumper adapter http://www.hi-lift.com/products/bumperlift.htm (http://www.hi-lift.com/products/bumperlift.htm)

Once you have them bumpers and some rock sliders, you'll be able to jack it from anywhere :wink:  :D
