I am going to buy a Hi-Lift jack. But, I can't decide which size to get: 48-inch or 60-inch. I will be using it on travels with both my 2011 Ram 2500 Crew Cab as well as my early bronco. The money isn't an issue - they're close enough to the same price that it's no big deal. I'm just thinking about overall weight and size and wondering if the extra 12-inches of length really adds much to the functionality. I suppose during winching or something you wouldn't have to reset as much with the 60 inch, but how often do you really need to do that OR lift something that high?
I'm just looking for some insight from the guys that have them and have used them. Obviously, the 48 inch would store easier, weigh less, etc. But, if the extra length really is a necessary thing, then I'll get that.
So what do you think? 48 or 60 inch? I have pretty much decided that I'm getting the 'all cast' version....unless someone here REALLY talks me into the extreme.
Thoughts?
