Default Hi lift jack mount idea.

I know some of you guys wont like this, but I love it.

I don't run with the bumper trim as it is. First thing I took off. Couldn't stand the Cheap look.

Im still new to this discovery and sadly am unemployed so I gotta work with what I have.. BUT I love this idea, wether or not I had the money. [Well Id have a new bumper if I had the money.]

It looks better in person. There are two metal parts that extend out on both sides and it supports the weight of the jack well. In daylight it looks like the metal parts were made for it.

Yea, I thought about that. At first I was going to use wing nuts but then ANYbody can loosen them. And I always have a toolbag with me. I think one more hole drilled by the heavy part of the jack will make it perfect.

I have one of these on the Hi-Lift on my Land Cruiser, mounted vertically, but it says it will work horizontally as well. Nice to have a little extra peace of mind that your jack is not going to get "jacked" (HAHAH)

I love this idea. Now.. if we could only figure out how to put a winch roller setup behind the factory bumper just below the Jack I would be sold!!
