I bought a screw jack at the junk yard out of an older F-250 and made a half sleeve out of 2 1/2" pipe which locates right on the u-bolts with solid tabs welded between. I put a piece of inner tube rubber between the axle and the sleeve and jack right under it. The jack is strong and lightweight and doesn't leak oil. It works so well, I use it at home instead of my floor jack. I can't get the floor jack under the u-bolts because it's too wide. I don't like jacking on the axle tube.
