4WD Jack

We love getting out in the four-wheel drive for a weekend session of exploring a new trail. And if you are a serious outback explorer you are bound to have a comprehensive selection of recovery gear and repair kits. For more extreme 4X4 adventuring, your simple bottle jack just won't cut it - and a quality exhaust jack or 4WD high lift jack is going to be up there on your list of must-haves. We believe in the products and equipment that we sell and know that the need for a 4x4 high lift jack is absolutely essential. When camping and four-wheel driving are a big part of your life, you want to have the best products to make life easy. 

There’s every chance that you’ll get bogged as a dedicated four-wheel driver, so don’t risk being caught out – or having to dig your way out of a hole – with the range of quality exhaust jacks and high lift jacks from Outback Equipment. When you think about traditional jacks and how they work, the first thing that springs to mind is the fact that you need to have a nice, solid surface – like bitumen or dirt – to place the jack on. Then you need to be able to get in under the vehicle and to place it securely in the right area to be able to raise your vehicle safely. But for anyone out there who’s ever been four-wheel driving and needed a jack, you’ll know that finding a secure surface – let alone being able to get under the car – might be just the first of your problems. 

The Best Jacks For 4WDs 

When you're out in the bush - your vehicles bottle jack just won't cut it, especially once you add a suspension lift and bigger tyres! Based on our experience off roading, we'd recommend investing in either an exhaust jack or high lift jack. We'll run through the difference of each below so you can choose the best 4x4 jack for your needs. 

Exhaust Jacks

Easy to use, incredibly efficient and no moving parts to cause a hassle – the range of Exhaust Jacks from Outback equipment are your new best mate when it comes to going bush. The exhaust jack is remarkably simple in its design and is geared to get you out of a tight spot. With a one-way valve at the end of the hose, it means that the exhaust air jack will stay inflated for hours if need be. The exhaust jack is the perfect four-wheel-driving companion for when you are bogged up to the axles in sand, mud, dirt or snow. 

The exhaust jack can also be inflated with a portable compressor and comes with two protective mats which are designed to protect it no matter the conditions. Using the exhaust air jack, you will be able to quickly and easily lift your vehicle (of weight up to four tonnes). We highly recommend adding an exhaust jack to your arsenal of self-rescue tools for your next four-wheel driving adventure. Not only does having the proper tools mean that you can get out of a tight spot quicker and easier, it gives you peace of mind knowing that you’re properly prepared – no matter what comes up. 

High Lift Jacks 

High lift jacks are essential for those times your stuck deep in a rut and need a sturdy product to do the job. High lift jacks are perfect for gaining stability on awkward angles. Most 4WD’s or bull bars will have dedicated mounts to place your high lift jacks safely. We stock the most reliable and quality high lift jacks and high lift jack accessories from Hulk and Mean Mother, so you know you’re getting the best.
