I have had a high lift since I had my IH Scout. That tool is so versatile you can't believe. I've used it as a come along, pull fence posts and many other things.
I also watched some great vids on the Hi-Lift Youtube channel on the various uses of their jack. Everything from fire/rescue to winching to post pulling. Definitely worth taking a look at if you own or are thinking of buying a Hi-Lift.
