AlpineX is on a distinguished road
Bottle jack is almost as scary as Hi-Lift jack. Not going to consider using one unless it is a companion helper to my floor jack. If you are set on using a bottlejack for the road, I would invest in a travel axle stand as well.


For as often as I have had to "coax" wheels off their hubcentric mounts, jack instability is even more of a concern.
