Time for aharbor freight 3 ton floor jackan old American-made jack from craigslist, bought for the same price as an HF cheapie, that you will probably pass to the next generation someday!
They're called a "widow maker" for a reason! Keep your head away from the handle. I use them as a very last resort, as a jack. As a come-along, they're pretty safe.

I went to a 4x4 show the other day in Pomona with a Overland bound member. Saw lots of these there. I ended up getting just the attachment for my existing jack. Worked great for when I did my caster plates. At least at home or in the shop it offers a controlled way up and down. I had never seen these before. So simple but gets the job done.
Don't be silly, for most, the proper use is a decoration, prominently displayed to let others know you are a "serious wheeler"!
