Was thinking of carrying a spare stock front wheel to use as a spare on the longer rides. What's your opinion on the best option, preferably something that doesn't take up a ton of space.

That's what I plan to use if needed. Last year I popped a bead off a front tire and someone riding with me ran the winch to my roll cage so I could take the tire off and clean as much mud as I could off.

If you do want to carry a jack, I'm sure a small bottle jack could be secured in the bed somewhere. Or, they do make high lift jacks for UTVs with roll cage mounts.

I'm using a scissor style leveling jack from a camper. Most bottle jacks wont be tall enough without also being flipping huge and weighing 40lbs lol.

Good old farm hi-lifts are cheaper than ATV hi-lifts. They are a foot longer but you can always cut to length. I made brackets from 2" muffler clamps and have mine mounted across the back of my cage.

But a buddy with a winch is the easiest.

That's a lot fancier looking mount and a lot less rusty jack than mine. Does the same job though. I carried mine on my jeeps for years.
