What jack stands do you use? I want to be able to put them on the frame and be able to have the suspension droop and be able to work on the suspension. All of my stands are too short. I’m having a hard time finding tall ones that aren’t $300+ Is that just my option?

Even with medium stands you should be able to lift the truck by the pumpkin, remove the wheels, and lower onto medium stands and still have room to droop. Then you need to jack back up to get the tires back on but nbd.

I have used ridgid brand 24inch pipe stands. When working on my xj. You can drill holes through neck to pin it if don't trust the locking mechanism

With my old YJ I simply bought some 2x6’s and screwed then together 3 layers high. (staggering the layers so they crossed)

Gave a nice wide and flat platform for the jack stand to sit on.
