Default HiLift Jack Hood Mount under $25?

Ok...this isnt really a write up, so I figured I'd put it here.
I made a hood mount for my Hi Lift using bolts, nuts, washers, and shock bushings ....cost less than 25 dollars.
(versus buying one for over 100)

Just wanted to show it off and get opinions.

Let me know what you think.





After many requests, write up is here.

Retailers charge anywhere from 85to 100 dollars fora hood mount kit and you cant really tell the diffence unless you get one with a light bar. I say hell yeah on the 25 bucks and save the rest for gas for the trails. A+++++
