Bottle Jack for use with sliders/without jackpucks

[veerthetiguy]

Does anyone with the DCE (or other brand) rock sliders have a good jack recommendation for roadside tire changes? I haven't invested in jackpucks yet since I planned on using my sliders to lift if needed. A lot of the bottle jacks look to max out at a 15-17" lift, which I believe needs to be 20-21" from what I understand (the jackpucks presumably make up the difference if using them).

Here you go:

https://a.co/d/70fCQBi (this is the one that I bought)
https://a.co/d/cEcipt8 (this is a newer version of the same)

Both jack/stand combo units have a 3 ton capacity, and a lift range up to 21 inches.

Safejacks.com - No affiliation. Be sure to scroll down to see illustrations of height and videos.

Although Safejacks shows the U shaped head for use with sliders, I'd probably still buy (and did) at least a single Jackpucks.com for added flexibility. The Jackpuck will fit over the top of the Safejack bottle jack for use with the Rivian points on each corner. It many instances using it with the bottle jack will be less likely to move or slip.

Thanks - ended up going this direction. Where are you storing yours? I put mine in the R1S spare tire area but the upper shelf with the air compressor doesn't fit on top

The bottle jacks that come with Mercedes Sprinters have ~25"+ of height and can be found on ebay relatively cheap.
