That's why I have AMA roadside

Roadside assistance is included in the warranty, isn't it?

They don't offer a telescoping 4 ton anymore.

What do you think the max jack height needs to be in order to clear the ground, including suspension travel? I don't want to have to strap up the suspension.

Captain, I don't know how much heihgt is minimum for ground clearance. The jack I have has a 15" plus the body of 10" for a max of 25", I have not had a problem jacking my truck for tire changes. Try Napa or Auto Zone.
