    I'd buy a nice little 1.5 ton floor jack at Harbor freight. Also carry a piece of 3/4 inch plywood to put under the jack if you have to use it in the mud. No jack is good if it sinks into the mud & falls over. Those OEM jacks suck on pavement, on unpaved stuff they'd be more than awful.

    Wow have a great trip. :Thumbsup:

    Good advice on the use of a small floor jack.

    I have an aluminum floor jack from Northern Tool that I take on our MINI runs. Not too overly large and I know it'll lift anything I need to easily.

    NOTE - I moved this thread to the 3rd Generation forum. It was in the Motoring Alliance How To originally. :D
