4wd Equipment
I would like to buy a high lift jack - they come in two lengths - 4' and 5'. Which would you recommend?
The serious 4X4 boys and girls go for the 5'. Because they can get more lift if they are stuck in particularly bad ruts. Or they need a longer pull if using it as a hand winch. What you have to bear in mind is the room you have available.
I like to store my high lift in my vehicle so for practicality and ease of fitting I use a 4'. It has got me out of some very bad situations. I have only ever wished I had a 5' when I have got a little bit tired when using it as a hand winch. The age-old adage of it doesn't matter what size it is but how you use it applies!!!
