Default High Lift Jack question before purchase

Can someone tell me if the 48" will work fine for a stock height H2?
Also, how does the High Lift Lift Mate work. Where does it attach etc...?

It will lift it fine, but I was stuck in a situation where a 48" was on the last hole at the top. It was sketchy to say the least. I recommend a 60".

I my self have both, 48" farm Jack " off brand of Hi-Lift" and a 60" Hi-Lift Jack. I am now runing the 60" Hi-Lift Jack on the Hummer. I went with the 60" just for the extra height in lift due to Off Roading use.
I do have the Lift Mate that works on the rim, and now I geting ready to buy the Jack Mate for the Hi-Lift Jack. The Jack Mate works great when your in a tight area with large rocks. Just remove the base of the jack and put the Jack Mate on, and you are ready to jack the truck up.

I totally agree, and If there was another way, we would have done it, but we had to use what we had. I thought for sure it would fall. The biggest problem is that you have to jack it up one notch for it to go down, we litterally jacked it to the top and it finally started to come down. A 60 would not have had this issue.

Order the hilift front bolt on brackets or manufacture your own...then weld them to the Gobi & you are done. There should be some pics of my truck somewhere on the K-rocks photos, H2 SUT maroon '05

I'll take the time to learn to post pics one day
