Hi-lift jack mount on rollbar
Six bucks, not 60. On your rear rollbar you find two weldments. Use 1/2 x 13 bottom tap to tap in threads. On passenger side I used a 1/2" grade 8 bolt and a 90 degree bracket from the uni-strut system. Uni-strut is VERY common. Walk in to any electrical room and you will see the rail and bracket system they use. On the drivers side I cut a piece of 1/2" all thread and made a stud. A wing nut and washers completes that side. Very strong and rattle free......

Please note that my Hi-lift is the cheaper stamped steel 48" model so it may mount a little differently than the cast steel models......

View of mounted jack. I only mount mine when I go wheelin' and it makes a great place to bungee my gear to. Yes, the back seat will still work fine.
