Looks way more stable and portable than a Hi-lift! However the good ole bottle jack is still a compact solid go to for me.

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

Yep I'm definitely not getting rid of the bottle jack in case, but this thing is pretty cool and can help get the truck in the air quickly.

doesn't seem sketchy to me, like you said throw what you have under the frame and jacking points and you'll be good on the trail in a pinch, great video my friend

Rad🎉

[@singermanz]

You still have the extra one? I’m local and would be happy to take it off your hands!

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

@@lexus_offroad_adventures just did!

[@TonyAlvestad]

Do you have any plans to run an air tank? Could come in handy for air tools etc.

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

I have air tools and I ran them in the previous video. It works ok with the air manifold, but it would for sure be much better with a proper air tank. I’m definitely considering it.

I don’t understand why this is surprising.

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

It’s a small compressor that’s always with me. I didn’t expect it to lift so easily. Of course it’s going to lift no problem with a big shop compressor, but a tiny onboard one? Wasn’t sure. I’m trying to find a good alternative to the tried and true hi-lift jack so this may be a contender.

[@mikec3561]

Great invention, but I wouldn’t trust it…

[@MoMo-pe8fp]

That's not armoured

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

Full steel bumper/winch, 3/16ths steel RCI skids including gas tank skid, and rear end swing out with Hitch. For an off-roader, that’s armored. Maybe you’re referring to a bullet-proof armored car? This is an off-road channel.

[@MoMo-pe8fp]

@@lexus_offroad_adventures oh, yes, no offence but that's pretty standard equipment for offroad builds. Armoured implies bulletproof

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

@@MoMo-pe8fp Forgot to mention the DOM steel rock sliders as well. Where you from? Out here in southern California, most people just add a lift and tires + maybe a light ARB skid plate kit and call it good haha Anyway, all I meant by fully armored is that I have all the coverage needed for rock crawling. Not sure what else I would add other than those cool brush guards they put on their rigs down in Australia. But that doesn't add much weight. There's probably a half ton of steel on this thing, which was the point of me including it in the title, because shes a heavy pig and a tiny onboard air compressor is lifting her

[@TonyAlvestad]

@@lexus_offroad_adventures any reason you switched out the ARB skids? They're in my budget but if they suck I wanna steer clear...

[@driojal]

@@TonyAlvestad I heard that the ARB skid plates are not thicker than the OEM skid plates. RCI are the go to
