This is a cool idea. How easy is it to remove? I only take my hi-lift when Im going off road, no need to carry the extra gear driving to work/school etc. I might do this tomorrow though. Good job!

To remove the Jack is easy I used a 1/2" wing nut. To remove the whole mount you have to pull the spare tire, but it easy after that. BTW thanks for the compliments, I really like the set up so far. I have had it on for about 4000 miles with no rattles or shakes. Rear gate swings open like it not even there. Also make a good place to hang a dirty tow strap on the trail (never know when you will have to pull out a hummer or something )

QED! I'm a little surprised the rig doesn't pivot upon loosening with only one bolt and a wing nut. Haven't noticed this?

Great mod....I just did mine over the weekend. My wingnut did loose a little while driving causing the jack to turn slightly. I added a lock washer to correct it.

Where do you jack it up from if you have no rear bumper?

Paul olllllllo

great mod. In my price range too!

Nice little mod, but I have just a couple of questions:

Is the weight of the jack all on the spare tire? And, does that put a bind on the spare or the tire mount? Just curious.

I really would like to mount a high-life jack on my jeep but kinda scared of the hood mount because of the weight on the hood. I really like this type of mount, but again, do not want to put a bind on anything.

well thanks to the thread starter i have about 3000 kms on mine and no issues so far check the rear tire carrier mount a couple times no signs of sagging or anyhing else
