It's a P.O.S. Ditched mine after about 2 months.

The best mount I've seen is to drill-out the tops of your front tow hooks & install bolts through the tow hooks, then use wing-nuts to tighten down the jack.

Anyone using the Woods kit on a 2-door? Looks like it might be 4-door only from the JeepSWAG site.

I mounted mine on the front stock bumper for now, it looks clean and it can be moved later if needed

I have the river raider on my righ right now. It is great unless you use your jk for domestic purposes too. many times you use the rear cargo area on an unlimited you will have to remove the jack to make stuff fit. I find my-self having to remove the jack once or twice a monto so last night I picked up the Woods Hi-lift mount. It mounts the jack up high, totally out fo the way.
The Jeepswag product requires you to remove the jack to raise or lower a soft top. Boo that son!

The River Raider doees not mess with the soft top at all but yes it gets "kinda" in the way for large stuff in the truck unless you just flip the rear seat forward. It almost sits perfectly parallel to the rear window bar.

I've found the River Raider one to be great so far, but.... When I get a tire carrier, its going on there immediatly.
