I need a JACK

You should paint your calipers while you’re at it.
This works well

AH HA!!! I finally got the truck higher enough to rotate the tires. BARELY high enough but it worked. I need to have the exact amount of wood under the jacks and rotate the screw higher so it touches the truck. Then jack it up and managed to get enough to remove the tires and switch front to back and back to front. Now to do the passenger side.

I posted the same idea last month. Post #20.

That's what I did again but I had better wood and snugged the screw adjustment ALL the way up and reduced the space to nothing! I don't think it would work on grass or soft dirt.

I recently had to replace a tire that Tesla said a nail was in tread too close to the wall. When I got the tire it looks like it is an easy and safe plug. I ordered a used CT rim on eBay and now want to create my own spare tire solution since I sank the money into the new tire. I need to figure out the jack for the vault, straps for the tire in the bed, air inflation and plug kit for the times I don't want the tire in the bed. I hope between us we can put a nice list together for everyone.

I found this jack that at HF 20" lift height. 20 ton sounds heavy.

Interesting jack and stand in one 21" height and says it is for truck heights.

I went with this bottle jack. High lift and you do not have to screw the top up to reach the max height

Serious question: Would a 7000-lb capacity farm jack work? Hi-Lift jack

T-Sportline has this one listed, but mentions you have to have the stock CTX bumpers, the stock bumpers won’t work. Doesn’t sound like high lift jacks will work with the underbody jacking points, need aftermarket bumpers for this style of jack.

Any chance any of these air inflators might work?

HF 120v/12v Inflator

You need this Jack and has a storage case as well

See warnings.

See warnings.

18" Height limit versus Tesla 21", not sure if it is tall enough when fully extended?

I just saw the Artic Cyber Trek video and noticed they were carrying a Hi-Lift Jack, has anyone tried using one on the jack points of the CT? Here’s a screen grab from the video with the jack mounted to the exterior molle panel.

I would think that should be fine as long as you angle it so you are putting pressure on the edge of the pack. Those Hi-Lifts are not light though (but they do work extremely well).

I think that is for show. It would not be able to grab the jack points, they are too far in and the angle is extreme. They might be able to use it on the hitch or hooks in the front...?

I bought the Big Red bottle jack 12 Ton. I’ll let you guys know how it performs.

Did it work?

Or they have one of these

Or they use it for recovery with this

They would need to have jack stands or something else to set the CT on if they used the first option to jack up the CT, but that is possible.
