What do people use for a jack?

What is the go to jack for a JKU with 37's? I don't want to go with a hi lift, too heavy and can be hard to get pickup points. I like scissor jacks because they are light and easy to store. I usually would always keep a few small 4x4 pieces of wood. I have a nice aluminum floor jack that was on my prerunner. I am not sure I want to permantly mount it in the back of the Jeep. AGM makes a nice scissoe jack but it is rated for 2000lbs. Which might not be too bad, if you are only lifting one corner.
 
I recall that I followed the advice in this video to a T, but found that the recommended jack-buddy (to jack up on the axel shaft) did not fit over the top of the jack (because the mushroom at the top is too large). So I returned it and bought a more expensive jack which is made in the USA.
