Which Hi-Lift Brand to Buy?

[superman27344]

Even better that the plastic "off road" base would be a substantial metal base:

The yellow one is the prototype I fabricated myself, the others were made by a local fabricator but now would be in the range of $80 each.

Are these being sold by you now? If so, how much is the shipping for one?

Hi-Lift is an Indiana based company that actually supports the off-pavement crowd enough they pay for everyone to get some dirt on their tires at the State Recreation Area and provides lunch and give-a-ways one day every year. My Hi-Lift is two decades old and works better than my buddys 6 month old Smittybilt knockoff he got new for free. He admits he did get his money worth

Here in SoCal lots of new or barely used Hi Lifts are listed on Craigslist at good prices.

I recently splurged for the 60" extreme and hi-lift base only because I've needed the extra height and a wider base at times when using the standard hi-lift. Love them, they can kill you, but I don't leave the pavement without one!

I have a Hi-Lift 60" First Responder Jack on the way right now. Should be here by the end of the month. I also have one of the base's shown in the pic. It is super HD for sure. I think I am gonna cut sharp teeth in mine, to use on a hill, when slippage is NOT an option. I think it will also work with the First Responder Jack. I think that for 4x4 use, the first responder is the way to go. I'm sportin' a Power Wagon, so no weight issue here.

Indeed. But you said there was only one Hi-Lift, but yet there are many different Hi-Lifts. :agree:

(just razzin' ya, I knew you meant Hi-Lift is the only one worth consideration, which I completely agree)

I received my 60" Hi-Lift First Responder Jack today. VERY impressed. I will check tomorrow to see if the other base fits it too.
