    New to the forum and Jeep Wrangler ownership. I am looking for a solid jack to have at my house for my lifted Jeep. Not looking for a trail rated jack, not the safest looking one for use in my driveway, any recommendations?

    Any floor jack will do. Or get a good bottle jack to keep in the Jeep.

    I prefer a floor jack at home but use the bottle jack on the trail 9 out of 10 times over the hi-lift.

    Welcome @Mathias4 ....plenty of decent floor jacks at HF. Got the yellow Daytona in the garage but don't forget the jack stands.

    I am another fan of the bottle jack, I even keep one in my CJ and pickup truck for when the need arises. Along with a wood base for underneath support when on the trail.

    I do own a Hi- Lift. But I am not a big fan of using it since it tried, unsuccessfully, to kill me. :eek:
    I too use a bottle jack. Also a scissors. And always use jack stands.
