Over on the Ranger 5g site there is an ex-Ford VP who has lots of stories. One about the jack is that they were designed for 25 lifetime uses, so you should keep that in mind. I never use mine, unless it's an actual emergency, I have a nice floor jack and a hi-lift if I need it.

Think about it.

The original bottle jacks and the segmented rods that come with it, that are supposed to be turned when inserted into the lug wrench, are crap and dangerous!!!! I’ve used the original system and it was a struggle.

I carry an aftermarket four way lug wrench and a small hydraulic jack in a case in all of my vehicles. It makes life safer and easier. Period.

By "Chinese food", you mean Cats, right. ALF ate cats.
