Question 2008 Ford F250 Lifted. Need a Tire Jack

Anyone know wher I can get a jack for my truck? I have a 6" Fabtech lfte and I have 22" rims with 37" tires. I need to have a jack that will work if I ever get a flat. I hope someone out there can point me to the right place to buy one. Thanks

I have one of the light alminum Craftsman 2 ton floor jacks in mine. I keep it in the tool box. It works 10000xs better than the factory jack.

If you wouldn't mind, could you post up pictures of your truck and give a little feedback on how it drives compared to stock? I've got my F250 on order and plan to lift it when it arrives.

Thanks

Post 2008 Ford F250 Lifted

I recently lifted my 2008 F250 I love the way it came out, but there were a few things that I didnt like. The truck runs great on this lift kit. I put a 6" Fabtech lift kit with 22" rims and 37" tires. I also put in overload springs and airbags in the back. The truck drives real nice with this lift when the tires are at 55 PSI and rides like a tank when ther at 65 PSI.
I found out that this truck had sensors in the factory rims so we had to put the sensors into the new rims. What I also found out by driving the truck that I had to have Ford recalibrate the sensors because they only give accurate readings up to 18" rims. I'm having this done next week.
I also found out like alot of my buddies is you DONT WANT to use the Fabteck traction bars they have a defect in them that makes them creak like the ruck is 100 years old. They of course deny this. Like with any lifted truck I do have a little axle wrap, but its not that bad.
I havent chipped the truck , but I will have to sooner or later because my speedometer is off by 7 mph https://www.f150online.com/galleries....cfm?num=15221
