Thanks, yeah that's what I was looking for. I'm thinking of getting the hi-lift off road base to use with my stock bottle jack, but need to see if it will fit. I mostly want it to give enough height to the stock jack to actually use it again with the lift. But I don't really want to get a hi-lift for a variety of reasons.

I'll take a look at mine when I get home, but offhand I don't think you'll gain much height. Maybe an inch if that. Plus, stability would be a concern for me. Even the hi-lift doesn't sit very far down in the base. I think you're better off using a block of wood.

EDIT: Well, I was sure wrong. It's almost 3 inches in height that you'd get, assuming the bottle jack fits. But a block of wood is still cheaper.
