Got a flat..

For 2025 Ford changed the language on the website to say "conventional spare tire."

Good move on their part... better reflects what it actually is (not a donut, not full size either)...

Wondering if anyone can recommend a good portable jack to replace the scissors lift? Ideally, something that would fit under the rear seat.

Don't no but the scissor lift worked great.

Glad it worked well for you. I've seen it called the "widow maker" on here because it can be unstable and really needs an ideal surface to use safely.

I think that could be said for any kind when not on a ideal surface.

I agree. The only truly dangerous jacks are high lift bumper jacks. Half the people that have them on their Jeeps don't know how to use them safely.

That said, I had these bookmarked from prior jack discussions, but I never got around to buying it, LOL.

With the tire flat is there 11" clearance for it to fit underneath the jack point?
