Default Mounting Hi-Lift Jack to Smittybilt

Hey guys. So I recently got a new 48” Recovery Hi-Lift Jack, and waited awhile to get the mounting parts. But I cant seem to figure out how to get it on. I have an SmittyBilt XRC Gen II bumper w/tire carrier, and the mounting parts for the jack are smittybilt too. But Im thinking they gave me the parts for the Smittybilt I-rack, as it dis not come with instructions. Not sure. Any install videos/pics or tips would be awesome! Thanks!

Smittybilt instructions are terrible. Do some searching on YouTube.

Default My exact question

I've taken the advice given in the only reply, but still am unsure of my next step. I am tempted to just bolt the jack onto the XRC tire carrier, but I don't know if this will end up overloading the hinges. Anyone interested in sharing a photo or two of how you've mounted your hi-lift jack onto the XRC tire carrier?

This is a photo from extremeterrain.com, but my bumper/tire carrier looks identical. Would I regret bolting my jack to the holes I've circled in purple? Thanks!
