Getting All Jacked UP! New ARB JACK Off Road Jeep Recovery
Вставка

This time on the AutoEdits Jeep Wrangler series... I add the ARB JACK to my recovery gear and show why it's replacing the old Hi-Lift. Not only is the ARB Hydraulic high lift JACK safer and easier to use than the mechanical style jack... it also offers a unique base that enables you to use it to break the bead of a tire if you need to and I demonstrate by doing just that!
Here's some info straight from the web page...
Adding a new dimension to traditional techniques, the long-travel ARB JACK is backed by the unique power of hydraulic technology. Kicking into action when even the lightest force is applied to the handle, the hydraulics will smoothly jack the vehicle up at up to 1/2″ increments with each downward maneuver. While in action, a black rubber body bumper shields the vehicle from risk of damage during the recovery.
The easy-to-access red lowering lever ensures lowering the vehicle is achieved swiftly and safely thanks to the two-stage descent feature and safety stop. Empowering the user with dual lowering speeds, with a press of the lever, a slow or rapid descent can be achieved.
Built tough to take on the grunt of the most challenging recovery missions, alike to the heavy-duty Old Man Emu BP-51 shock absorbers, JACK’s body is made from aircraft grade 6061 T6 aluminum for maximum strength. Running up the body, 9 hooking points offer the adjustable hook a wide range of lifting heights; capable of lifting up to a total of 4,400lbs.
When under load, an internal blow-off valve provides overload protection to safeguard both JACK and most importantly, the user, from the dangerous consequence of the vehicle suddenly dropping if the working limit is exceeded.

For 800 bucks or more they could easily include that base
That is a VERY GOOD POINT!
@@cmahoney_photo mouahahahha
and a hooker! for $900 id rather take a crack to the jaw...BUT i would take one for free lol surely all the ARB'ists are all over it
I saw one in person this past spring at the local off road Jeep show. ARB was there showing their stuff, and it is impressive, I was ready to buy one until I asked about the price. Myself and about 2 or 3 people standing around it jumped back a few inches in shock at the nearly $1000 for the jack. So, my Hi-LIft remains bolted to the rear bumper on my TJ... I'm sure the Chinese will knock-off the ARB, and sell it for $150 by this time next year... lol
HA! True experience on all accounts of that comment!!!! LOL!
Lets hope the Chinese do that and quick about it, Chances are that it was made in China Anyway, Macho men Driving macho Jeeps Crying because their Hi-Lift is heavy, Ohh Pleeeeease, LOL.
Very cool jack, but $800??? Uh, way outta my ballpark, but thank you Jason for the video. Keep em coming!
I totally appreciate that comment... it is steep but a quality product... not for everyone. So happy to have people like you here with me on the channel!
@@AutoEdits Is there anything on the market at this time, American made, that is comparable with the ARB? I'm sure in 2020 will bring about some items.
I hate the High lift jacks, always have. I refuse to buy one. My friends with Jeeps all have one, but I use a hydraulic jack with blocks, Now thanks to ARB I no longer have to! I will def be getting one of these! Thanks for the video and I have subbed sir!
J Smith $800 for a jack lmfao if you are that scared of it go buy a helmet and the hi lift.
The only time things go wrong with hi lifts is when the user doesn’t know what they are doing
@@ItzzTesta why are up so mad that someone wants a hydraulic Jack? Let em be.
8 Bills for a jack?!! Talk about a Rammed Johnson. Sweet Jesus.
LOL
Man wake up from sleeping all day because I’m sick and see autoedits posted a video makes the day so much better.
Sorry you’re feeling down but glad to have a video for ya!
AutoEdits it’s alright it just means more time to watch your videos.
Nice jack ! ARB. not surprising.
The highlift, nearly 30 yrs of highlift experiance has taught me, 1 hand at top of jack,1 hand on handle when jacking up or down. It can get ya.
I NEED that ARB jack. Very nice
I have not used the old type of high lift jack yet , but after watching your video
I believe the Hydraulic jack is the way to go much safer !!!
It's not much safer, it's slightly safer yes because the handle isn't actively trying to murder you but you still have the car standing on a single pole which is the most hazard anyway.
Hey Jason. Been watching your vids for a while now, and recently subscribed to ensure I am up to speed on the latest. As someone who has been POPPED by the ol Hi-Lift, I just ordered the ARB Jack. Thanks for the great “sales” vid! Keep this Jeep / Off-Road vids coming!
Great video. I recently rewatched all your Jeep and Ram mod videos again. I really enjoy them and you seem to have a lot of the same opinions as I do on a lot of the products you use. I love that jack, I can see why it was made (from a safety standpoint) unfortunately it is a bit out of my price range so my Ol' faithful Hi-lift will have to do for now.
THANK YOU!!! So glad you understand what these videos are about... showing off whatever catches my eye and if it works for you... GREAT... if not... not a big deal and enjoy what does!
I had to use my highlift Jack to break a bead on an rv tire to replace the valve stem last week in Yellowstone.
Also, that arb base plate is also molded to fit the highlift Jack.
Good to know!
Everyday Overland yeah, I use my Hi-lift to break beads all the time. Also, @autoedits, you can walk around the tire with your feet once the bead is broke in one spot instead of having to reposition the tire and do it again...
Very nice jack review. Amazing how industry continues to reinvent the wheel.
True... constructive observation.
Glad to see a new Jeep vid
Hi jason great video buddy , i miss the jeep videos .
Thanks... me too.... Seriously lots more to come on the Jeep! Full transformation happening.
AutoEdits nice i can’t wait 🤟
Great lifter and much safer as well, I love the dog she’s just like our brown Lab, every time I put my gardening boots on he gets excited and drops his his tennis ball at my feet over and over again!
$300 sure, $800 feels kinda reachy. i know there are some rich ass offroaders but for $800 i could get more upgraded suspension parts and the need for a jack will decrease
This is legit... I get it.
Great video! Those new ARB jacks are pretty sweet.
Great video. I purchased an ARB jack a couple of months ago and love it. I'm looking for a different way to store it and was hoping they'd had a bracket where it can be stored against the rollbar somehow. Maybe in the future there will be something available. The only negative for me (so far) is lowering the jack back to storage position - takes quite a bit of effort. But I'll take that any day over the Hi-Lift jack.
HA! Yes... here's my tip on lowering it back down... balance yourself on your Jeep and stand on the thing as you lower it... goes down much faster!
AutoEdits So it’s a ‘Pogo Stick’ as well..😂
Wow about time this idea has been reinvented. I imagine there is a bit of maintenance on it as well
Probably, someone mentioned in a comment that there might be an issue with storing it on it's side and having oil leak out so I'll keep an eye on it and hopefully they can figure out how to bring the price down (a lot)!
I was just rewatching some of your previous videos when this one popped up. Bonus for me!
Bonus for me too... thanks a ton!
The bead breaking is a head scratcher here... You can break a bead with a farm jack, that's nothing new. I watched that done on a field repair about 30 years ago wheeling with my dad and his buddies. Getting what you pay for and getting screwed for what you pay are two different things(curious if their R&D took the brunt of this cost need or if they had to pay for the patent/design). Disclaimer, I'm an ARB supporter and product owner, have their single air compressor, their OME suspension on my Tacoma, and several other products and I don't think I'd pay for this if it were half that price. Unfortunate, cool product, doesn't warrant the cost, still a cool video and I'll always be a supporter.
This is the kind of comment I totally respect! I get that the product doesn’t make sense to you at the price but going off the deep end like many others is flat out crazy to me. This is just a dumb old you tube channel with a dumb old dude with questionable taste in some products... take some and leave some... but being productive in the criticisms helps everyone! Thanks!
The original was called a farm jack.
A friend has one that was his great-grandfathers and still hasn’t developed an oil leak.😜 Much greater capacity, much lower price, a long list of accessories to do many jobs, easily rebuilt with new wear parts. Either one can put you in the hospital when used without common sense and training/education. But I gotta hand it to ARB (a great company) for the marketing gimmick factor. I’m sure they are going to make a bunch of $$$$$ from it. My wallet is too thin to replace a good tool that has proven itself for generations.
Yep I agree, The Hi-Lift has a 114 Year Proven History from peace time to field use in the current Wars, I would not buy this piece of junk if they were 10c each, 800 bucks I think someone has more money than sense, I can buy at leased 6 Hi-lift extreme Jacks for that kind on money,
Cool Jack... Only One Negative is... It doesn’t look as Cool as the Hi Lift mounted on the back of your Jeep! 😝
Mounted on the back of the Jeep where it gets all the backsplash and washes away the hinge grease and seizes so it's unusable when you need it?
But ya, that's so totally cool for you mallcrawlers.
@@Jarod1941 I was going to say the same you have the trail guys and mall crawlers...lol guess who love to look good and not have the function part ;)
That’s funny, I usually check my hilift before I go out, but it’s my daily jack, has been for years. Different spray lines for your environment. Mine has always worked, even to de-bead wheels.
I broke the demo at arb plus it couldn’t go high enough for the front of my patrol. High lift farm jack works every time!!
Very nice jack , but at $ 800.00 it will have to wait . Thank you for the great review Jason . Belly rubs to Pinto from me , she is such a cool little fuzzy buddy . Until next time take care .
Thanks for at least checking it out and being positive!
That's very awesome, just may have to pick one up
It's not a good fit for everyone's gear but it is a pretty cool tool!
Looks great man. Those highlift jacks always seem sketchy and that’s a good option if you have the budget. Lack of punctuation makes for a great read too. Lmao! 🤣
So glad you get this whole thing! Thank you!!!!
LOL 00:42 He said RAM JOHNSON!!!!!!!!!!!!! HA HA HA, I can't stop laughing. Can't continue the video. Have to take a break. Ok, I'm back.
Thanks so much for enjoying the fun!!!
Pinto The Best Helper !!!! Love Her !!!
Thanks for this video. Definitely will be investing in one of these.
Floor jack and a block of wood has served me well for almost 30 years of driving.
I almost fell over when I saw the price. I guess it's like comparing a Rolex to a Timex. Both do the same thing, but rich guys will be sporting these on the trail. The Hermes bag of jacks!
LOL
It’s a long travel shock with a pump and slide hook way over priced
I’ll keep my 2 high lifts ($50 each)
Glad to see a SCV person representing... I live in Saugus..saw you at the gas station about a month ago. Awesome videos. Maybe just stay with “Jason”...just my opinion... views will come
Glad to hear from you! If you are available and see me around town... say hey!
Hey Jason, you've had a lot of after market parts placed onto the jeep and i was wondering if you could make a maintenance/review video of how all those parts held up the last few years. I've been watching your videos since you placed the warn winch and bumper on your jeep and im curious how well everything is holding up as far as rust and just basic wear and tear. Thank you.
Great web video! It looks really professional! Maintain the great job!
great video but i definitely know I wont be buying at almost $900. Wish i could!
I totally get you on that point... it's way up there on the scale... thanks for the support on the channel though!
very nice product but you could break the beed with it even without the cut out and it will work with the farmer jack too. But I do agree it's far better than any high lift jack out there.
I like how u love and play with your dog all the time
Thanks so much for appreciating that!
Very cool vlog..... worth every cent if you're alone when changing a tire.... nice to have you back dude... a side note how many balls does Pinto go through...lol
Thanks so much! She used to go through them pretty fast but this one has stood up to the task the longest so far. Plus she is getting to be an old lady.
Both are extremely dangerous, also my friend got that ARB and the first one failed after one week and the second one he received failed after a month, and returned it and got his $$$ back and went back to the trusty bottle jack.
Interesting to hear this... I'll let you know how this one performs. I bring a bottle jack as well anyway... used it on my last trip in the truck.
Hopefully now people won't mistake your jack for a rifle now! Awesome video Ram Johnson!
😂🤣
For $800, you can get (4) 4 ton jacks from Harbor Freight...good luck ARB
That thing is awesome, but $800 for a jack? With no base included?
Yeah I'll stick to my jankey $150 farm jack and keep taking every precaution to keep it safe when in use.
I totally agree! it's not for everyone.
If someone offered me free HID Projector Turbines for $1200. or this $800+ ARB jack (for FREE), I'd take the jack.
Hope you have money saved up for hospital bills! And a will written! 👋
It is a nice product but nothing new. In my house I have a very similar one that my grandfather had and used it in his trucks. It also still works.
Only 4400lbs capacity. Less than half of my GVWR. Not sure I'd trust it to get me out of a pickle.
Pretty cool tool there Jason.
It's not for everyone but an interesting bit of equipment.
Ram Johnson..... simply awesome. Better get that copyrighted.
YEEEEESSSSS! So glad you liked that... gave me a serious chuckle!
T-shirts with “Ram Johnson” 😱
Ram Bam thank you Man
lol
Ladies and gentlemen
Thumbs up for
The one and only
Ram Johnson aka the junk cleaner.
Well that's catchy.
Glad you get it!
Guys you get what you pay for. I ordered one a few weeks back,Rock and rolla have a jack and cola
Have you received your jack yet? I'd be curious what you think once you put hands on it...
@@AutoEdits Not Yet will let you know when i get it.Thanks
Another awsome video... Can i just buy the jeep lol... Keep the videos comin...
Thanks and yes! But you should wait another month or so because I'm about to do a huge makeover to the thing!
@@AutoEdits oooo crap... Can't wait for that video👍👍👍👍
@@AutoEdits as much work as you put into it im sure i would have to sell my house to buy it lol....
For even less money, I could have a pro eagle jack and a hi lift. 800$ is just way too much
Awesome jack.
It's a unique bit of gear... I like it!
Very nice indeed. I hope you got a really good deal on that. $800 seems kind of high for a jack... but then again a lift kit can easily double or triple that cost.
It seems alright, may be worth the Investment for a professional tow company or implement/tractor field repair guy but its pretty hard to justify a whole months mortgage payment for a jack I may need to use eventually when I can swing through harbor freight and pick up a handyman jack for $45.99 with the current coupon.
Your mortgage is $800? Congrats on that.
Small town Minnesota is a tad more affordable than anywhere in cali
you should check out the king screw off road jack its run by an impact driver
Another Great video and review! I know this is expensive, however before your video I had no idea of the various uses and ease of use ..............
Yeah, this part in particular is not for everyone! Thanks for checking it out!
Another great video keep it up !
Deal!
"Ram Johnson" "Bead Off" Haha Yah, I'm mentally still 12... Lol
Looks nice .... $$$ price hmmm .... Safer and easier to use. I have a heart issue, which will mean less effort to use, so this Jack is a real positive for me.
It has come in handy for much more than trail stuff as well. I use it to help change tires and such.
Just wondering, I had read somewhere that they do not recommend storing it horizontally. Have you read or heard anything on that?
I'll let you know!
Can't wait until a competitor builds one for a fraction of the price lol
A hi lift jack will never leak. Proper use means keeping your melon out of the bite zone.
True on both points.
A hi lift jack will kill ya if used improperly. Even the most seasoned users don’t fully trust em. Whenever you have to pull out a hi lift more than likely the situation is dire which usually means high stress. High stress means folks can’t think as clearly which means more room for mistakes. An arb jack is cheaper than a trip to the hospital and/or cheaper than your family paying for funeral costs.
That thing may be costly, but I think I would like it a lot more. High Lifts ALWAYS scare me. Anytime I see somebody using one. This seems far more predictable, and much safer to lower a vehicle with.
They are both good and capable and it's just what you want to spend the dollars on! I'm glad to have it and hope to never actually need it... LOL
Don't be scared. Be cautious. Be aware. Be alert. Be prepared. There's a lot of things you can be when using different equipment. But if you're scared, you probably shouldn't use it.
So for $2k you can get a complete ARB locker set for a JKU , and for about $1k I can get a jack and baseplate. Crazy.
I didn't get to see you collapse that expensive jack once it was extended, without a load on it.
It does go all the way back down, if it doesn't go fast enough I just put my foot on the peg.
"Ram Johnson" chortle... Great vid. But $800 WOW. Maybe wait for black friday.
AlphaMike yeah I’m with you, way out of my price range
Ha! So cool to hear it this way!
I'll keep my hi lift and bottle jack. With the proper training the hi lift is very safe.
RAM Johnson? Surely you should keep that as your Porn name? 👍
HAHA! It does sound kind of awesome that way...
Can anyone comment about this particular issue that I had with Jack. I'll give the scenario example related to this video. When he was using the Jack to break the bead and he was finished. There was around 20 inches of the Jack still out. That part need to be completely inside the Jack in order to put it in the carrying case. Sounds simple right. I'm 280 pounds and I have to put all my weight on the jack to watch it very sloooooooowly go down. By the time I was done collapsing the Jack, I was wore out. I took the Jack back. Is there an easier way of doing so? The Off Road Center I bought it from couldn't figure it out. Jack worked great other than completely compressing it to get it back into its carrier. Thoughts anybody?
Sounds like the relief valve wasn't operating correctly, simple as that.
I just use an old farm jack for popping beads works the same but doesnt cost 800 bucks lol
It"s a cool jack, but unless its patented, someone will come out with the same thing for less. i think it's way over priced. I mean $90-100 vs $800? Really? Just be careful using the high lift jacks.
Looks like a great product. But $800. Ouch!!
I feel ya!
Hey nice to see another video from you. Also, I hope the nicknames were a joke, lol.
Maybe...
the only thing the arb jack offers that a hi lift doesn’t is the safety. The price is crazy. I’ll risk copping a smack to my chin and keep my pennies haha
Keep your pennies and lose some teeth... seems legit... LOL Yeah, it's luxury item for sure.
Welcome back with the vids. You getting a JL soon and modifying it😀? what's up with large Marge?
Howdy! I'm going to transform the Jeep I have one more time (which will be very fun) and then look for a JL next year... maybe!
Lol $800? And I have my Hi-Lift mounted where it is for accessibility. And that thing looks like it will break. I like the usual content of your videos but this one just seems like it was for a Pay check and not because it’s really a great product for recovery.
Question: The provided instructions say not to store the ARB Jack on its side or it will leak. Yet they are all shipped on their side. They also are stored on their side at the distribution warehouse and in delivery trucks. Mine arrived covered in oil because of these reasons. Further, how are we to store the Jack outside the vehicle if it comes in a storage bag that is without mounting hardware and which causes one to assume that the Jack is to be stored IN the vehicle, where it almost always can only be stored on its side, because of its height? Why isnt there mounting hardware specific to the Jack, designed/sold by ARB that is 1) meant to be mounted on exterior and that, 2) incorporates theft resistant features (e.g. lockable hardware)? I'm in the states. These are very popular here but that is changing quickly. I just returned from the Overland Expo and my question above, includes the 2 most heard complaints about this product and are the reasons why so many are now turning to other products. The number 1 complaint however: storing this on its side should not allow oil to leak/this is a very poor design feature! I love ARB but this is money I'm now seeing that was poorly spent, due to an incomplete design and a lack of mounting options, which ARB should've addressed prior to releasing this product. ARB, please address these 3 things, or I fear ARB will see this products interest lose steam. ARB is a solid company but the mark was missed on this one big time.
I think that was an early production problem and has been solved with the Jacks. Good to use and store however needed. I did ask about an exterior mounting option and they thought since the Jacks are so expensive... no one would want to mount them on the exterior of their vehicles.
@@AutoEdits Appreciate the response. However, mine is a recent production, manufactured within last year and still arrived covered in oil. I'm not so sure the leak issue is resolved. But let's hope. As for outside storage: at overland expo people kept inquiring about a mount at the ARB booth. Even the ARB rep at the event couldn't understand why there wasn't a mount. But again, let's hope.
I've read and heard this jack has to be stored vertically. I'm guessing that is due to the hydraulic fluid that it uses. Have you had any issues with it leaking when storing it horizontally?
I have heard that as well... I store mine standing up in the shed when not in use but have laid it down in the back of the Jeep for long trips with no problems. My buddy was told that when his jack leaked it was a faulty seal and they replaced the jack under warrantee... no leaks since on the new jack.
@@AutoEdits That is good to hear. Love the videos and thanks for the response.
Maybe we’ll see the mustang soon
Maybe....
Love the vids
Love the support, thank you!
Nope.. I'll stick with the HiLift. Nothing this does justifies its cost. All the Decades of use for a design that hasnt needed an update to be effective, the ARB is a fix to a nonexisting problem in my opinion. The newest "Skottle" to the market.
I appreciate your opinion but it is inherently negative and closed minded. Like when my buddy Fred gets all bent about Factor55 and their fancy winch hooks. Hi-lift failures (whether they are user induced or design based) are a problem and a company offering a solution is a good thing. Don't like it, don't buy it but huffing and puffing about it is counter productive... in my opinion.
@@AutoEdits I agree in general that we should be open to new ideas. And there is a legitimate issue of danger with the hi lifts. But at $800 I can't ever see the ARB jack being worth it. It's not quite a solution in search of a problem... but it's close.
Lost me at $800. I'll wait for the next video.
You can also use the hilift as a bead breaker if needed.
True but not anywhere near as easy. Just did a tire tonight with the ARB jack and it made it so easy.
@@AutoEdits the only concern with the arb is if an airline or the airbag blows then your vehicle falls. With the hilift atleast it’s mechanical and won’t fall. A tip with the hilift is to push down from the end so your head isn’t in the path of the swing arm.
What air line or air bag?
@@AutoEdits isn’t the arb based on an air pump? So it would need some sort of seal or hose
@@gjs9871 simple hydraulic jack like a bottle jack but taller.
Let's put the price in perspective. If you get injured by the high lift, you'll wish your medical bill was only $800. 😋
Very well done sir!
Just live in a country where medical bills aren't that high and there's actual social welfare system in place, and practice common sense when using the normal hi-lift jacks.
@@samuelorhjaltalin9042 But Samuel, Americans really like obscene medical bills for some reason. They seem to think that's normal.
I just wonder what it will look like in 20 years? I have a handyman that is 30 years old and works as good as new.
Watch those Hands, and make sure you have time to compress it if it is cold temps.
It even took a while on this warm day!
OK nice over priced jack but should you ever lift your Jeep by the bumper hoop? There are specific jacking ponts to jack at.
Well, as a J.E.E.P. owner, its just a few more dollars...
JEEP = Just Empty Every Pocket ... :)
Video starts at 5:00 , your welcome
No it doesn't. You will find no one "thanking" you.
Nice review! Is the ARB serviceable like floor jacks? Meaning is there a way to change the hydraulic fluid and are there zerks to grease?
Yes it is serviceable. No zerks
Guys I have an jeep I just joined the jeeps team want know is that normal that jeep on road having issue with control steering wheels its keep jump left right in humb
Sounds like death wobble... check your ball joints and track bar.
@@AutoEdits thanks I was thinking the same issue it could be
Really, every bumper jack from the 40's to the 80's worked just like a Hi-Lift. The Hi-Lift will break beads as well and can pull as well as push. As a bonus, I can repair my Hi-Lift in the field in about 20min for < $50.00. Try that with a the ARB hydraulic jack. Gain some skills and save yourself $700
I have plenty of skills. I just want a fancy jack and you can't stop me from having one! LOL
Jason, thought I saw somewhere else on a review about storing it laying down and oil leaking out.............Any issues or have you heard anything about that?
Good info... I haven't had it long enough yet but it came out of the packaging covered in oil... could be a sign that will happen again... hmmm.
AutoEdits I would bet that’s probably from the breather on the pump side. If arb can’t figure out how to design a rod seal that doesn’t leak it would be a huge waist.
You can do more with Hi-Lift Jack than ARB Jack.
True
Wonder if it would fit under the backseat.
Good suggestion... I'll check!
What about the AGM electric jack? Battery powered.
I've never seen that one!
Might want to reword that 😂
LOL!!!
Please strap that jack down. If you ever roll that jeep. You do not want that thing flying around the cab with you.
Great advice!
