my jack is under the hood behind the driverside headlight. the tire-iron is in the bag under the back seat. the will to change tires on the road side is based on the looks of the lady with the flat tire |

Do you guys with high-lifts use your bottle jacks to change tires? Or the high-lift? |

Blake, As was said, peek under the hood on the right side (facing the truck). The jack is held down by a metal wheel chock. Ours is body colored (don't know if they all are) so you might overlook it at first. As was said, the rest of your tools are under the rear seat along with the cross bars for your roof rack. Don't worry about not knowing. When I bought the truck, one of the final things I did before I left the lot was to ask where the jack and tools where. They finally had to call out a service guy as NO ONE in sales (including the manager on site) had a clue. |

Bottle jacks /scissor jacks on the road and floor jacks at home. Hi-Lifts/Jack-Alls are for emergency use. They are not stable. I'll even use a bottle jack in the field whenever possible before I'll break out the Hi-Lift. |
