Reviews: Hi-Lift Jack 60" Cast and Steel Jack - HL-604

Let’s be very real. American made and it is Hi-Lift. They are the marker and everyone else is second place. Not a time to buy copycat products!

For lifted vehicles with big tires this is an essential tool to carry with otherwise changing a spare would be near impossible. The HiLift works as expected. It did not have any issues lifting one side of my 6500lbs Toyota Land Cruiser. Keep the Jack cleaned and well oiled and it will serve you well for many years to come.

I have used it for more then just lifting up my jeep. From pulling small tree stumps to moving large rock out of the way, but the first time I washed the jeep. I had rust on the cast parts. I now spray it down with wd-40 to keep it looking good.

Hi-Life has been known for many years for it's quality jack. There are some areas where I would not cut corners and buy a cheaper Chinese made product. The jack to lift my 5000 lbs vehicle is one of those areas.

broke a link and used the Hi-Lift as a link and it got me off the trail and back to the trailer and also a lot of people saying "man that is a really cool idea".

With 28" ground clearance on my Jeep, I thought the 60" would work better than the 48", but a bit of overkill. I fabbed a custom horizontal mount on my swing out tire carrier, so it fits nicely between my spare and tub, but I'm sure glad they didn't make a bigger one, or it would be wider than my Jeep! It works great; I've never heard of a Hi-Lift jack failing.

Everyone knows what these are and what they do. Great for a lifted truck. I couldn't even use a floor jack! I mounted it in the bed of the truck for roadside and trail repairs.
