OK, so I finally got my truck lifted and put 35 X 12.50 - 18 TOYO MT's on it. The truck handles and drives great but I never gave it a second thought about what to do if I need to change tires or fix a flat or do any repairs on it. What are you guys using for a jack now? Do you carry it inside the truck or just hope you will never need it and wait to you get back to your house and use a floor jack. Would a Bottle Jack be the best jack to store inside the truck under the back seat or what? Any help would be great.

I've seen some Chevy and fords that have big bumpers(which I see you don't have) that have Hi-Lift jacks mounted on them. You could get a tool box for the back to keep lug wrench and other stuff in. You could find a way to mount the Hi-Lift in the bed, but I don't know how well it would work with the stock bumpers.

Yeah I've seen those in magazines, pretty cool. In the trails I bet there kinda common, but could you imagine seeing someone on the side of a freeway using one of those.
