I have a 1994 TF Rodeo with a alloy Bullbar and was wondering how to jack the vehicle from the front with a highlift jack as I am led to believe the alloy bar is not up to the task. So Rodeo owners without a steel bullbar how have you made it possible to jack the front up or is the steel bullbar the best solution ?

The best way to lift the front or back of any vehicle is with a good jack under the chassis or the axle.
Forget the high lift, they are not worth the trouble to store safely in the vehicle.
If you want a jack that will lift the side of the vehicle up, try a exhaust jack.

I must agree with Bucky & Wayne, While I have one & use it around the
farm I
dont find it very useful with 4wd. They can be dangerous, are heavy & awkward to
carry, location points on 4WD are not easy, as you have discovered, & they are very
unstable. Never get under a 4by supported by one of these. Generally they appear
to be more ornamental than useful when you consider the size & weight....oldbaz.
