I was looking for information about how tall of a jack I should purchase. I had the problem with the jack not raising the tire enough to take it off.
I decided to purchase a bottle jack and wanted to know if anyone knows what the height of jack that I should purchase. If anyone could help me I would appreciate it.
I had tried to jack up the back on the frame which the factory jack wouldn't work. Once I had help getting my jeep jacked up and got to a computer, I downloaded a manual for my jeep and saw the jack point locations:
For the front tires, place it in the notch on the body weld seam behind wheel to be changed.
For the rear tires, place it under the axle by the wheel to be changed.It's on page 305 of the manual, but it doesn't say anything about the jack height.

I don't go off-road with my jeep, I just need a jack incase I have a flat tire. I see some listed as minimum height of 7" and maximum height of 11" while others list it as minimum height of 9" and maximum height of 18". Anyone have a clue what height span I should use.
