Ram 1500

I have a quad cab 1500 Ram. The registration says it's 7000 lbs. I have a
2 ton jack. I jacked the truck up at the front right wheel, which was flat.
It took all of my strength to pump up the last few pumps. I was afraid it
would fail, and it was creaking a lot. Will a 2 ton jack hold safely this
load? Theoretically, it should hold at least 1/2 the truck's weight. But,
as hard as the last 4 or 5 pumps were, I was concerned the jack would fail.
Any opinions?

thanks
Brian
