About this guide
A Wrangler jack must reach the vehicle’s actual lift point, which changes with tire size and suspension height. Compact bottle and floor jacks work best on level, firm ground for tire service or maintenance; long-travel and farm-style jacks are recovery tools with different stability limits. A jack raises a vehicle—it never supports work underneath it. Use rated jack stands, wheel chocks and level ground before any under-vehicle work.

Buying tips
- Measure from your chosen approved lift point to the ground at full droop before buying; a stock Wrangler and lifted Wrangler can need very different reach.
- Recovery jacks and farm jacks can lift a vehicle, but they must never be the only support for work underneath it.
- For maintenance, chock wheels, work on level ground and lower the vehicle onto correctly rated jack stands before going underneath.
