I need to know if anyone has been able to find a good compact bottle or floor jack that comes with a case that would meet the following requirements:

1. Would reach the height of a Truck or SUV (ofcourse)
2. Compact enough in the case that it would fit behind the seat of a regular cab truck.

Any advice is much appreciated....

Crap, now I see a different current thread... I still have a slightly different problem I guess.... Maybe a mod could merge?

I'm pretty sure most regular cab toyota pickups came from the factory with the bottle jack behind the seat...maybe you can find one of them on ebay or craigslist.

This is for a non Toyota vehicle and I am installing a different set of seats so the jack that is installed under the current bench seat has to go.... My fault for not explaining that...

I see.

Well in that case...I would still suggest looking for a bottle jack from a Toyota 4x4 regular cab pickup. They came with a nice steel mount, that you could bolt down to the floor or wherever.

Most Toyota 4x4s have a frame that sits higher than your average 4x4 vehicle, and this will ensure you have a jack that is tall enough.

Take a look at Cherokees, Chevy Blazers...etc and you will see what I mean.

This isnt to say that a jack from a Cherokee or Ford Explorer, etc wont do the job either...
