flatcat19 Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Measure clearance of your jacking points and go get one from the JY that will fit. 2 Quote Link to comment

heywier427 Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Aluminum jack from a g50 q45, with a porsche crank/handle. Best combo ever/light weight. In all my cars. Rx7 and porches came with aluminum jacks, but are pricey. The q45 ones are meant to lift a 4300lb car, and are cheap in comparison. Albeit, hard to find. 1 Quote Link to comment

KoHeartsGPA Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 I use AAA, or a can of fix a flat Fix a flat is a very bad choice, most tire shops won't patch your tire after that, it's just better to swap for a spare or ya, call AAA. 3 Quote Link to comment
RatVonDude Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Wish i never gave my stock red one to buyer. I use palletjack, forklift or just drive to nearest tire shop. 1 Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 I use a Fred; Jack just wasnt cutting the mustard.You don't know jack! Stock for the wagon. In the sedan I have a small lo profile floor jack that fits with the mini spare in the hole. 1 Quote Link to comment

I have been very fortunate about flat tires, most times when I have a flat, I need new tires, so I would use fix a flat then. If the tire is still in good shape I will call AAA 1 Quote Link to comment
