my problem is the box I have on the ute is great in most areas except when needing to change a flat tyre. because of the low clearance between top of tyre and wheel arch I had to use 2 barrel type jacks.
1 to lift the axle off the ground 2nd sitting on a block to lift the chassis up enough. I need to lift the chassis 380mm minimum off ground for wheel to slide off Ideally I'd like a trolley jack but max height for something I can carry and store is 330mm. What other suggestions can you come up with... Sissor Jack ... what height?

I don't think something this small raises up enough though :( |

perhaps you could put some adjustable air shocks on the ute , then you might
only need the one squat jack under the axle? . |

Not wanting to be pedantic fussy, but... bottle jacks are what I have used but called them barrel .
Air bag... hmm 4WD specalist didnt recomend them for tyre changing. Air shocks hell the cost but it may head down that way, if.... we want to keep it long enough to pay them off. Thanks guys I appreciate your help so far.
