Those 'farmers jacks' are more properly called 'widow makers' and have
no business anywhere near a Jeep in my opinion!

I carry a hand cable winch called a come-a-long,
http://www.cvfsupplycompany.com/hanpowpulcom.html

And I have a small floor jack that tucks tight behind the passenger seat
for changing tires. I only need to jack it 2" to change a tire. I use
the axles.....

Some folks think they can use the farm jack as a winch..... Or the
come-a-long can be used to winch the Jeep up to a tree to change a

If I get a 225/75/16 or 205/75/16 will this be the same height as my

way off base.
Thanks
