Sorry for the terrible cell phone pic, but i think it has enough info to show how i did mine.
Ordered these 3 1/2" clamp from granger. it really took longer to figure out I needed to
remove the base of the jack to make this work. I also used garden hose rubber washers
between the jack and clamp so it wouldn't rattle.

Took me a while to find this thread....I've been lookin around trying to find a way to mount my hi lift jack onto the side of my jeep under the A-pillar, I found an 80 dollar bracket online but then I came across a few people in this thread that have it mounted like that, was wondering if I could get some input, maybe a quick write up, and pictures. Thank you so much in advance, I appreciate it. Here's the mount I'm talking about

I use the Ace mounting bracket, I just replace the damn wing nuts with an Allen head and nylock nuts
In the glove box I have the loose single Allen wrench and a single wrench and there stuck together in place with a rare earth magnet which is gaff taped to the glove box
So for the most part, your taking something pretty heavy and attaching it to a safe location that generally gets under utilized
