Need some advice on a Floor or Bottle Jack
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?

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...
