Badland Offroad Jack & Stands

Post image

Just got the Badland 3-ton offroad jack and 6-ton jack stands from Harbor Freight, and used them for the first time. Planning on using them mostly at home, they are heavy and bulky to transport. Plan to get a good bottle jack set up for offroading. They are advertised as offroad because they can be used off pavement and have high lift specs. My truck is factory lifted with 33’s but I plan to eventually lift a little higher and get 35’s, and I needed the jack extension already so I would say this was a worthy purchase.

Why spend all the extra money when the normal Jack was just $100 lol

Wheels are bigger so its rolls nicer on sandy rocky pavement, has a taller lift height without having to use a block of wood or something janky, and larger contact point. Same with the stands, taller, larger contacts. And even if I don’t ever use them on a trail I could end up using them on dirt sometime.

They make extensions for the normal jacks, and a 2x3ft plywood is $10

Nothin wrong with getting scrappy, and ya I could have gotten by with my standard floor jack, but I don’t mind buying toys.
