Default How to jack up a lifted truck?

ok so i know about the hi lift jack but it doesn't seem appropriate for use with a painted bumper lol. I have a bull bar so the T-lift system won't work either. I just want to know how the heck I can change a flat on the side of the road once I get this 6 inch lift on? thanks lol

option 1 = You would need a floor jack and a few 2.4 blocks or one of the crazy looking oversized jacks you can get from 4wheel parts. This assuming that you have a full sized spare.

option 2 = AAA tows your truck

Option 3.. temp fix with plug kit > refill with 12v compressor kit > drive to nearest tire shop.

Won't work for a blowout.. but will take care of your average puncture situations.
