Is there some kind of cheat to get 38s back on the jeep?
I'm disabled and unable to do so, also no friends to help.

Any hack/tip to get it back on?

It's a heavy nitto TG 38x13.5x17.

don’t jack the J**p up so much that you have to lift it more than about an inch, and use something under the tire to lever it up?

if you mean back onto the spare mount, try balancing it on your floor jack while lifting it high enough to get it on the mount?

Ah I meant to the hub.
Going to do my brakes soon and realized I'm unable to lift the 38s.
I'll try the 1" method, or maybe my lap? It's a big tire haha!

Amazon has at least eight different tire lift devices. You need to check out all of them and figure out which one is best for you but they all work.
