Stock bumpers and High-Lift
Lately I have been seeing quite a few JK's with stock bumpers and side steps with 33 inch to 37 inch tires. Noticeably a a lot of them have a High-Lift jack mounted to them.
As I recall and all the previous post I read that there are no lifting points for this jack. Are they just lying to be cool or am I mistaken?

I seriously think it's for looks bc when I had stock bumpers and side steps I could not useANY points to jack up the jeep. The only thing I can think of is if they used the lug straps things to used the hi lift lug strap accessory. My guess is that you are prob seeing this on a mall crawler.

What bumpers and rails are you running with now?

I have a stock bumper and a hi lift. The 3rd time I used it I dented the pinch seem (didn't have sliders at the time. I'm able to put a small piece of 2x4 between the slider and the jack. Works fine, for now.

I have a jeep on a budget. My front bumper is a simple pavement ends with a skid row skid plate and winch. The rear is a smittybilt tube bumper. The rockers are also smittybilt . All have held up nice and all provide great points to use a tow strap. I've used my hi lift on the rockers when I was left with no choice and it held securely.
