ARB Hydraulic Recovery Jack

Hi there,

I know these are used for specific lift situations. I am considering this lift. Any thoughts? It seems worth having one just in case?

Perhaps there is a thread for this. I found them discussed in a general lift thread.

Thanks

It looks like a nice unit but seems a bit expensive for what it is. I had a very scary experience with a high lift jack a long time ago and I haven’t used that style since.

I recently purchased a Vevor air powered jack (since I carry a compressor anyway) but haven’t had the opportunity to use it on the trail yet. I did use it at home to swap winter tires onto my JKU last weekend and it worked well. I fabbed up a quick connect coupler and schrader valve so use with a portable compressor is EZPZ.

Bottle jack. If it works for semi trucks, it'll work for a Bronco. Compact and the most powerful lift you can get.

I've been wheeling a bit now. To date I haven't seen a "recovery jack" ever used. Winch - definitely. Jack - nope

Great thanks, yeah winches as well.

I've got safejacks.com jacks and jack stand I carry. Awesome off road jacks with a large base. They go quite high on their own.

I think I really want a winch.
