Hi Phil
Ask the engineer and company who design and market the High Lift Jack you own and use...and their lawyers.
Your response was a bit snippy...if you are not looking for members opinions then don't ask on a member based internet forum.
If you are asking members of this forum to contribute I don't see how you can have it both ways....
Empirical is a big word.

Dave,
No way meant to be "tit for tat" just replying to "what are you really asking"...if my questions were not explicit, then I tried to clarify them...
Yes I use big words like empirical...since I truly believe experience is the best teacher...
Take Care...Phil
FYI...dug in a little more and doubt that my hitches [especially front] are a high enough class of hitch to withstand a vertical lift that I would need to lift either end of my truck/FWC combo....front is a Curt hitch about a class 4 and rear Tundra OEM is about the same....unlike Kolockum's class 5 that has about a 1,500 lb vertical load limit, my hitches are about 500+ lbs of vertical [9,000lb towing], no where near enough...not about the capacity of my High Lift Jack but about what are the receiver hitches vertical lifting limits...
