Default A jack for my ute

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?
