Default Non typical hi lift install on orfab carrier

So i dont like the horizontal mounts for the hi lift jack on the or fab tire carriers. I like the way aev mounts theirs vertical so this was my solution.

So the attachments are the hi lift tube mounts and they are very strong and very sturdy. No regrets with this setup. Now i can add more stuff to the inside of my tire carrier if i choose to.

Nice spin on a HiLift mount.

Unfortunately around here I would end up catching that on a tree limb and damage to something would ensue.
