Well I just received my new brake rotors and pads and figured this would be just as good as time as any to see if the stock jack will lift my front end with the leveling kit and 33's. It did the job but when I lifted the back end broke the jack. So now I have to decide find another one somewhere (eBay/dealer) or does anyone else know of another option that can secure decently into the stock spot?

Personally I leave the OEM jack in it's storage area unless there are no other options. And this works well the rest of the time:

My stock jack broke a few weeks ago too. Pieces of shit. Don't use unless you have to. Get the 3-ton jack for around the house and replace your other one for incase you get a flat on the road.

Please use jackstands. Never trust your life and appendages to jacks. Jackstands are cheap and super easy to use.

I was trying to. The jack broke before the 3rd one went in.
Yeah I was using stands as well but the jack just didn't stand up and with my leveling kit the stock one barely reached, I had to get a 12 ton jack from autozone to get one that will reach without issues in going to put it where the "first aid" kit goes
