Merry Christmas to all, My daughter got me a High Lift jack for Christmas to go on my JK. Has anyone any experence with them and what is a good way to mount it to my JK? I have a stock rear bumper and no room on the front for it.
Thanks in advance for the good council.

ToughStuff Hi-lift Hood Mount

 

Great setup!
Thanks

 

In the past it was considered dangerous to mount it on the front as in the case of a collision the jack can go through the windshield.
Or so they say...
I really like that RuggedRidge setup up there. Very clever
Much just make sure it's stable and sturdy..

Mine is mounted on my roofrack. Safe and out of the way

But keep looking. There's stacks of places to put them.

LoD GenII rear bumper is a great place to mount one

 

Not certain why a vehicle coming to a sudden stop would have something on its hood end up in its passenger compartment. Perhaps if it got twisted around after bounciong off the object you ran into? Now, having something mounted on the rear ... yes, that might come into the passenger compartment. Anyway, to tell the truth, I'm much more concerned about things inside the vehicle (tool box, recovery tools, camping gear, etc) coming forward than I am about the Hi-lift on the hood being a problem. And I don't really worry very much about that, even. The biggest complaint about on the hood is it is really a two-person job to remove and install--lest you end up with a damaged hood (which mine already is from hail, but that's beside the point).

 

Haha yeah, the front mounted thing also sounds silly to me. Just put it in there for consideration cause I've heard a bunch of people mention it before..
I should add they drive Toyota's
