Cheap jack pad for stock scissor jack.

[blnewt]

If you run a bit taller tire or need a bit more lift w/ the OEM scissor jack these Home Depot jack pads work well. They come in a stack-able pack of (4) 1" pads for $15 and fit just fine in the rear storage bin. A bit easier on the wallet vs. the $70 pads specifically made for the JL jack

Just an update, recently added a bottle jack, this Harbor Freight 8 ton should suffice.

And an axle buddy type DIY adapter (I wouldn't jack an axle without one). The axle buddys are kinda crazy priced, if you have a welder you can make your own w/ a threaded nipple and a small piece of channel iron for about $5-10

Good tip. Amazon delivers the Jack pads for free for the same price. My HD doesn't carry them.

Looks like you lose at least 1.5" with the lift collar and the Jack has
Minimum height (in.) 9 in.
so you're now taller than the axles with a flat tire.

I use 12"x12" 3/4 Plywood, because it is laminated, and will not split or crack like 2x4, 6s boards will , especially on rough ground. Easy to store, easy to stack if needed.
And budget friendly
