Toyota Tacoma Jack Needs This

[@edwardornstein668]

My Tacoma is standard but Ive had very bad experience trying to use the little bottle Jack. I'm considering going to harbor freight to pick up an alternative to the factory jack but the lifting maximum height is a concern. This would be A great alternative to buying a 3 ton Aluminum jack to keep in the bed Of my Tacoma

[@theparrotchannel2625]

That's a good idea.I have a Tacoma with a small lift.And my factory Jack barely lifts it on perfectly.Smooth ground off-road.It would be impossible good idea

[@richardshoat8711]

You allways have good videos.

[@RobMotive]

Thanks Richard 👍

Much easier to use the yellow stabilizer blocks that look like legos. You buy them at camping world they are specifically used for putting under stabilizer Jack's under trailers. Buy them used at a garage sale cheap. Stick them under the seat you can use 1 or 10. Plus you can use them laid out to get you unstuck.

[@RobMotive]

Never seen them.

[@pesh6772]

Great idea and thanks for sharing. Definitely a must for anyone with a raised truck!

[@RobMotive]

For sure! It’ll ruin your day if you’re lifted and don’t have it😬

[@camronbay]

Good idea, only one thing worries me a little. The bolt sticking out. Could hurt you if not careful.

[@RobMotive]

The bolt is to stabilize the jack on the base. Not sure how it could hurt you?

[@M-.-Jones]

You Got the Jack

[@RobMotive]

Oh man I hope not😬

[@johnbailey1305]

Another great mod/addition for the Tacoma Rob! I have been in that predicament before with another vehicle where the jack wouldn't go high enough to get the tire off. Not a good feeling.....

[@RobMotive]

I bet not! What did you do?

[@johnbailey1305]

@@RobMotive I had to hitchhike a ride to town and get a larger jack. Lol. Not a fun day.....

[@RobMotive]

Oh man!!!! I bet not😬

[@chadkranats1452]

Great tips Rob.

[@RobMotive]

Sometimes it’s the simple things👍👍

[@ellerybice3787]

How often is the spare tire’s PSI checked, far less often than the other often neglected maintaince chores I bet.

[@RobMotive]

You know it!😬

[@michaelmoore5339]

Rob, I used to install the jack in the Tundra and Tacoma on the assembly line for about 7 yrs at TMMTX. 😁😁😁😁 I like the riser base for the jack. I need to make one since I have the bigger tires and lift. Great idea!

[@RobMotive]

Definitely need something if you’re lifted!!!😬

[@canalesivany]

The index finger is so useful 😂 work for a lot things!

[@brianscustomcanvas1911]

You do come up with the best ideas.👍

[@RobMotive]

Thanks 👍👍

[@shermfj]

Perhaps a second bolt diagonally across, both bolts longer and able to add a third 2x6 for added capability

[@RobMotive]

No need IMO. But, it could be done👍

[@mikeashely8198]

how many times did you drag your back of your hand on that stud that sticks out on your block in the back of your truck

[@RobMotive]

I don’t know what you mean??

[@steveking1053]

Thanks for sharing Rob. I’m heading out now to check my Jack!! 👍

[@RobMotive]

Always good to know before you need it!!👍

[@Tamac1979]

Wow, great idea. Thank goodness I’ve never got a flat I wouldn’t have been able to jack my truck up. I’ll be making one of these tomorrow. Thanks Rob.

[@RobMotive]

Glad to help. Sometimes it’s the simple things👍

[@MPGunther1]

Great idea for something that isn't thought about until you need it. I like those newer bed lights too.

[@RobMotive]

Definitely needed if you’re lifted 👍

[@chrisshaw2769]

Great idea!

[@RobMotive]

Very necessary if you need it😁

[@jamescorrigan4149]

Hey! Nice videos. I notice your bed lights, stock, aftermarket? Maybe you have a video on them?

[@RobMotive]

They are stock👍

[@edwinmaldonado8761]

Absolutely amazing video. That’s one awesome idea for a stock jack. I am firm believer to get a better jack than the stock. Soft shoulder not having a 2x4 piece of wood is a nightmare. Or something that you are showing us that will work as well.

[@RobMotive]

Thanks Edwin 👍

[@nickk3085]

What size is the wood u used rob?

[@RobMotive]

I believe they were 2x6’s.

[@BigDThatsMe]

Great idea, but I plan on picking up a bumper jack for mine.

[@RobMotive]

Even better

[@johnfletcher1655]

I'm assuming that you are talking about a high lift jack bumper jack. Where exactly would the lifting points on the stock bumpers be at?

[@BigDThatsMe]

@@johnfletcher1655 great point. Personally I have thought about that as well. The only thing I can think of is I plan to install rock sliders so that would be an option.

[@TheBourbonNights]

Mr Motive, that is a very nifty idea. I like the tip of the day also. The tips were also helpful. Thanks!

[@RobMotive]

Thanks👍👍

[@mikeashely8198]

bat stud that sticks out of Jackass essery that you mounted on the inside all the bed of the truck isn't that stud sticking out a little bit you might drag your hand across it? now I'm going to build one of those blocks. if it fits in the cubby hole in the bed of the truck that's where I put it

[@RobMotive]

No more likely than running your hand across the edge of the bed opening👍

[@mikeashely8198]

I don't know how autocorrect screwed up what I was saying but autocorrect in doing that a lot or is it KZbin I read this over 3 times before I sent it and this is correct we'll see when I push the button

[@ryannewazada2102]

Aloha and good evening Rob 🙂🤠☺️☺️. This is a wonderful idea for tire changes. Wonderful concept for the lifting with big tires installed with the lift. Great video Rob 👍🙌🤜🤛🤙👍😇🐕🐶😻🪔❤️👀.

[@RobMotive]

Thanks Ryannew 👍

[@russellmorash3816]

Rob I noticed you had the old style bed lights on your truck I was wondering why you put those on instead of the newer style

[@RobMotive]

Not sure what you mean?

[@kylecandare8306]

Hey Rob did your 1 inch lift resolve rubbing issues with the new wheels and tires?

[@RobMotive]

Closer to 2”👍

[@kylecandare8306]

@@RobMotive thanks for the reply Rob! I have a 2” eibach lift with 265/75r16 on my stock SR5 wheels like your old ones. Been planning on ordering some 16x8 stadiums as well but don’t want any rubbing issues. Thanks for being one of the only few who have posted these wheels. Much appreciated 🤙🏾
