Hello!
I have a 6.5" full traction lift and 35s on my '97 XJ. I use the hi-lift mount points on my JCR front bumper and my 48" hi-lift jack maxes out before the tire is off the ground. To be clear, the vehicle goes up quite a bit but, the tire stays on the ground due to the flex.
I just installed roof rack mounts for hi-lift jack and prefer not to upgrade to a 60", which is what folks on the forum have recommended. I have seen some videos on youtube where folks have used ratchet straps to limit flex and easily lift the tire off the ground on a land cruiser. I would like to try that.
My question is, what should I wrap the ratchet strap around to prevent the wheel from slopping?
Cheers!
