I know I will get scorned for this as lots of people don't like them but I don't travel without a hi lift jack. Not so much for jacking but winching and clamping. They are great for pressing dogbones back on the bushing.

Oh I LOVE the "Hi-Lift" jacks !!! I have three of the premium 60" models. One is on my Deuce, one on my CUCV, and one on my M105 trailer. I just had to use it last week on my M105 trailer to get the hitch off as the ground was to soft and sank my landing gear. I've used mine to even replace tires on the deuce. I have installed a longer handle on mine though. The extra leverage helps a lot. In my opinion the "Hi-Lift" jack is the best bang for your buck in any equipment purchase for your vehicle.

I've said that for decades now. Might have started during my Marine years. About the comment of military personnel taking care of the deuce. When I was a Sargent in the motor pool we had about 40 guys in our platoon. So when a deuce came in it was swarmed and put to rights in about two days.
That was me remembering in post 30
Stuff was good to go when they released a truck for service, only stuff
they missed was that which one has to drive it as fast as it will go problems.
