I agree, removing the TC on the side of the road would present a another more serious safety situation.
My stock jack set that came with my truck has several, I think three, extensions that you slide through the hole just above the bumper to facilitate you cranking the tire down.

This is the wrench I purchased on Amazon for my set up.
