I use my bottle jack 10 times for every time I use my hi-lift.
I use it every time I change a tire.

We've used hi lifts on factory bumpers with no ill effects.

Yes, rip it off and build your own.
Hi lifts are not for changing tires. They will bend your bumper and crush your rockers.

At 6'2" and 180 pounds? Not really, no.
The front bumpers are made out of tin foil.

My friend got stuck deep....His 33's were about more than half covered in mud. We gathered some logs and crap and used the high lift on the logs lifting the front end up via the bumper until the front tires were above the mud. Then I pulled him at an angle until he got onto dry land and gained traction and drove right out.
Didn't alter the bumper one bit.
