I can lift the whole axle one foot, and shift it, which usually
much higher than your hi-lift may lift chassis and then unsparing that
axle then off the ground. To each their own.

honestly Bill, I'm not trying to be a smartass what so ever... I was up on
one of John Cranfields trails, stuck on a stump in ruts and couldn't get a
bottle jack under the axle and under the bumper wouldn't get the axle off
the ground.... I know had I had a Hilift I woulda been on my way...and even
if I had a winch I was in a clearcut and the nearest tree was hundreds of
feet away...I finally resorted in calling John, askin' him to bring ol'
Muddy out fer another Jeep rescue...

Hi Jeff,
It's a good rule to go off roading with another Jeep, kind of like
the buddy system that works well in scuba diving. And it's much more fun
showing off our conquests to one another
