Hi Lift jacks are good for pulling out fence posts. That's about it. Worthless in the field on any newer vehicle. No place to hook the jack and with suspension on newer vehicles that have 10" plus of play, the jack is precariously balanced if you can manage to get the wheel off the ground at all. Spend the money on a quality winch. Many of the back roads in CO are no place for most stock 4x4's let alone a 2wd with or w/o chains. Unless you have a locker, that 2wd is more like 1wd. The weather will be bad at some point when you are here. Guaranteed.
