I checked the "comments" on the Amazon mini 2 ton jack and although most said it was suitable they commented that if it was used on a slope like the side of the road it may be unstable and in some cases twisted. Furthermore the small wheels would dig into the ground and although the manufacture advertises it as a 2 ton jack it has trouble lifting the vehicle if its bigger than a light one. The only reason I want one is to change a flat if need be and inevitably it would mean the truck would be on a side of the road slope.
