Mine is the 48 inch jack but even so at a overall width of 59 inches I am limited to what I can mount on my Jeep. Considering I've got 8 inches of lift, 35 inch tires and long travel coil spring suspension I think even a 60 inch jack won't quite cut it.

Up around these parts we call them "handyman" jacks. They can be pretty precarious to use sometimes especially if you are trying to do something rediculous alone! An absolutely required tool for truck guys though. Can't believe that some new ones come with a plastic foot!
Here's mine I've had for decades, 48". I welded up a bigger plate that would saddle the foot on it many years ago but can't find it now. Was probably stuck in the mud and I forgot to dig it out. I welded the handle into it also so it could never get pulled out and used for a cheater pipe or something and destroyed or not put back.
I like that rubber deal in the pic, Fetch, that holds the handle in the folded up position. I wrap a bungee cord around mine a few times.

It was pretty cheap too. I got it at Amazon. I really like that SafeJack attachment that I'll post a video to in a second....

Tell me about it! When it popped out I freaked and decided that was enough for me. Until I got this:

Some people are like slinkys. Not worth much but funny as heck when pushed down stairs.
