Went out to the garage today to install the BWoody sway bar links and....the dang Jeep has no tire jack or anything...had to grab my 3/4" socket. Dang the run flats.

Even if it did have a factory tire jack, it would be one of those dingy little screw-up mechanisms. Nothing you would want to use unless you HAD to (i.e. flat tire on the side of a road). You want/need a serious hydraulic floor jack to make quick and easy work of any DIY job. Make sure to use a torque wrench; you do not want to get into the habit of guesstimating the torque on your lugs with a standard socket wrench.

I got this from a service manual for the lx srt8's and it states 110ft lbs. I'm guessing it will be the same for the jeeps.
