btw, hope that hi-lift wasent the only thing supporting that Jeep... Ive had a Jeep fall off one before, not pretty.

I was hesitant about that posting that pic, because, yes, it is being supported only by the hi-lift. My puny little jack wouldn't work. I have my tire underneath the spring, in case. Still....not too safe.

haha yeah just get an HF aluminum one and some Jackstands. the jack is like $100 and the stands are like $25 and you can find them on sale too...

P.S. you be suprised what ive done with only a little jack like that and some bricks

Harbor Freight has 6 ton jack stands (sold in pairs) for $20 again right now. That's when I picked mine up!

Important Note: The Harbor Freight jack stands are not manufactured to the highest level of standards. Don't put the Jeep up on 4 jack stands as they'll be ever so slightly different heights and the Jeep will be unstable on that as well. Work on the front or rear one at a time and you'll have far greater success!

EDIT:
So you don't have to ask how I know:
