Best Off-Road Jack For A Four-Wheel Drive - Hi Lift Xtreme - Survival 4x4 Jeep Wrangler Project

The Hi Lift Xtreme jack is the best four-wheel drive jack I have seen for off-road or general use for a 4x4 or any vehicle with high ground clearance. Hi Lift jacks are made in the USA and built to last. Plus, the Xtreme version also doubles as a winch, spreader and clamp. Available in 48" and 60" models.

3:35 jack review starts.

[@annabarone9956]

This is what I’m looking for at the moment，Thank you!

[@allenelam6135]

Very nice set up. Thank you for sharing.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks for watching!

[@wvlongshooter3912]

Great vid!! The seven dislikes must own the cheaper harbor freight models.

Great Addition To Any Off Road Rig, Had 1 in my 1979 J-10 Jeep, Merry Christmas Bryan & Family ! Happy Trails From The Frosty Maritimes In Canada ATB T God Bless

[@amandamcgruder5074]

Thank you for showing us how to use the jack, I have one but I was never shown how to use it!!!!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I am glad it helped.

[@jimzee6954]

I remember when Jack's that came with your vehicles looked and functioned just as the old American farm Jack's. Been using that style jack for years. I would buy the American made jack for sure. By the way the three times I've been stuck it took a farm tractor to get me out of my predicaments!

[@HerbieFollin]

I bought one of these to remove some small tree stumps. Specially the 60” Xtreme version, because I wanted the best possible.

[@user-tv8sm6so9y]

I bought my Hi-Lift HL485 over 20 years ago and it's still like new and then in 2016 I saw the 60" X-Treme and just had to have it, Reason for the 60" is because I got an Army Land Rover Cross Axled in the Bush and the Army ones sit 6 to 8" taller that the standard Land Rover So The Hi-Lift X-Treme should take cae of business, Great Video well done.

[@dispmonk]

Thank you sir. I was just trying to figure out what I wanted to buy last week. This is helpful.

[@Loudpedal10]

Hands down potentially the most dangerous piece of equipment you can carry on your 4x4.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Glad it was helpful!

[@dispmonk]

@@Loudpedal10 Only dangerous in the wrong hands.

[@Loudpedal10]

@@dispmonk Agreed. Unfortunately that covers a lot of folks.

[@Bob-lt5hf]

Nice Jack

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yep

[@docbrown6550]

Been using them for over 40 years........Great Product, you can use them as a Comelong

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yep

[@Johonavich49]

The jack looks great! I like how it can be mounted on the roof of your off road vehicle. As far as trusting a jack, I would have to agree with you Bryan. Harbor freight makes cheap untrustworthy parts, made with cheap parts. I wouldn’t trust my life to them. This Highland jack is American made, stronger, better looking, more capable, and worth the higher price! Thanks for this video Bryan! I love the chuck Norris facts, they make me laugh every time!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I buy some stuff from Harbor Freight. But not things that HAVE to work EVERY time

[@Johonavich49]

@@SurvivalOnPurpose yes but a jack does. Your life depends on it.

[@trustonlyline4206]

Swap the extreme end piece out so out have full functionality and still have the patriot models. Now for you farmers you know how well this thing will stretch wire for fences. Great tool. And if overloaded their are safety sheer pins that break and lock saving the user from user failure. Sheer pins are replaceable saving the tool. Don’t replace with grade 8 bolts! Get new sheer pins.

[@MySickstring]

“Don’t put your head in the arc of the jack handle” proceeds to do that immediately.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I don’t think so. I think that was the camera angle. But I have been known to do stupid stuff from time to time ;-)

[@MySickstring]

@@SurvivalOnPurpose haha, we all have man. I’m surprised that I’m still alive.

[@National757]

I have an H1 Hummer all decked out with gear. About 10,000 pounds plus. Unfortunately don't have a winch. But I always keep extrication/recovery gear onboard. Including a hi-lift jack. Heading out to the Eastern Nevada desert one time had a right rear tire blowout. The Hummer was loaded up for a 5 day camp trip. Very heavy. On the side of the highway my Hi-lift jack saved the day! The hardest part was the 170# 37" spare tire! The hi-lift made short work lifting up the Hummer! And like you said, many other uses. Including in emergencies! For the price depending on the model, pretty cheap life insurance when things go wrong! Might be overkill, but I also keep a heavy duty floor jack in the back of the Hummer. I like to get out to remote hard to get to places. Never hurts to be over prepared! We all know this saying....better to have it and not need it. Than to need it and not have it! ;)

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yep

[@redsorgum]

This video was all jacked-up............😬😬🤣🤣 Being able to use it for other tasks is pretty cool.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I think so. no downsidfe to having extra capabilities for a few more bucks.

[@thebrizzy]

I need this over a winch. Lighter and less money. If I was a big time off-roader I’d go winch though.

[@normedwards5305]

I used one to yank a particularly stubborn camelia stump out of the ground.

[@alexanderweaver4838]

I had an urge to reach into your video and snap that tree branch...distracting bugger. So far I haven't needed a hi-lift jack but that day could come. This Xtreme model with the accessories just may be a new addition to my overland kit. Now I know what to suggest to have my wife put on her "you wish" list. I recommend Maxtrax recovery boards. I bought the less expensive pair as the extreme version with metal teeth run north of 500 bucks. Aside from a winch, Warn maybe, the Xtreme jack, and recovery boards are worth every penny invested...better than having a recovery service come out to haul your butt out...then charge you over 3 grand. It happened to a friend of mine who thought he could easily tackle Moab's trail in Utah. Also, a good comms system is a must. Great looking Jeep, Bryan, and I like the blue denim paint.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yeah. I couldn’t fix the branch in editing

[@alphaomegasurvivalsupply6548]

I was almost sold but without being balance tested I just don't know.... lol haha

[@joeydelrio]

im trying to pull fence post and i keep breaking these at the handle socket where handle attaches to jack, does anyone make these in industrial steel like big pipe wrenches?

[@RealityCheckGA]

Would love to hang out and Jeep Trail Ride sometime. I live in Kennesaw.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Kennesaw is a good place to live.

[@KA5IVR]

I've had the Hi Lift Xtreme on my Jeep for many years. TIP: If it is mounted exposed, from time to time you need to lube those moving parts so they will move by hand when needed. Also, one other suggestion... Buy a Winch for that Jeep!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I am working on the winch

[@cbigg81]

The Jam Out Jeep. You can grab your guitar or an ar and Jam!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Spounds cool. But, to be totally honest, I am trying to use a name that is search friendly. You have to think about that to get more views and grow a channel.

[@richardstyron5716]

We used them to pull out metal fences post

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Cool

[@TheBeatenPaths]

Is there a hole or something on the bottom of the bumper?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Not sure what you mean

[@TheBeatenPaths]

@@SurvivalOnPurpose what keeps the top of jack from falling sideways when there's weight on it. I'm remembering all cars in the 60's and 70's had jacks like this, but there was a rectangular hole in the face of the steel bumpers. Jacking this one on the bottom of a slippery metal bumper, I would think it would slip out from underneath easily.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Nothing but the weight of the car. They make a couple of different attachments to secure it on a bumper but mine works fine without it.

[@TudorThomas]

Brian, came here to learn about hi-lift jacks. I so don't need a new belt. Thanks anyway.

[@shcmoly]

I chalk my wheels whenever changing a tire in the dirt.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

What do you write on them? ;-) sorry, I couldn’t resist

[@randyraynard6254]

Love the jack , please show more talk less

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Are you implying that I have a tendency to use too many words when trying to explain something that could be made clear with a lot less rambling on and on and on and on as though I was writing for a magazine which paid me by the word so I want to use as many words as possible so I can maximize the amnount of money I make for writing that article while strengthening my vocal cords at the same time? Is that what you are saying?

[@chrisbruce7594]

A hi-jack is just a jack without PROPER training.. also the 48" is useless with a vehicle with any lift.. buy the 60"

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It ain't rocket science but youy do need to know how to use it. Training never hurts. And I guess it depends on the lift. I have an 1-1/2 lift on this Jeep.

[@jameshall4385]

Great products but farm jacks are extremely dangerous.

[@ecorey45]

My buddy had his teeth knocked out by a hi-lift jack

[@user-zf4qs2jy3n]

They do make one hell of a war club. These jacks will weed out the idiots fast.

[@TerryManitoba]

If a Hi-L is soooo fn important and useful - why do both of your jacks appear to be unused. I caLL BS on how hey valuable they are.

[@hammer9390]

Some people take care of their tools and some don't. And how many times have you used the jack in your vehicle? It's one of those things that's better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. IMHO

[@TerryManitoba]

@@hammer9390 Sure - What you said - or you don't look the part if you don't have one hanging of your rig - funny they are all in pristine shape - and wouldn't it be a good idea to acutally practice using such a "vital" and dangerous piece of gear. My well-used shop Hi lift spent most of its life inside and still doesn't look as beautiful as your. still call BS.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I don’t get your point. Honestly, it sounds like you are just trying to be argumentative. Like I said, I have had to use the jack once. It has been inside the back of a Bronco since it was new. I’m not sure how much practice you think someone needs to use a jack. But to say that because I haven’t needed to change a tire a jack is not a valuable tool to have is just plain ridiculous. I call BS on your comment.
