I see that most of the people have their HiLift jacks attached outside of the jeep either on roof rack or some other place on the body. How is it that its not rusting out being outside all the time?

Im curious about this as well. Im considering a neoprene cover but im not to sure yet

I don't think neoprine cover will save HiLift from rusting.

Put it inside your jeep. == No rust.

I spray mine with a clear coat that inhibits rust (unfortunately, you'll have to do it after every time you use it on the trail). I keep mine outside:

Good question. I have used mine for pulling fence posts and other agriculture related things but have never mounted to the exterior of the Jeep but I was looking into a rear bumper/tire carrier/cargo rack kinda set-up intending to mount it there. Never really thought about rusting. I have guesses of what might work but am anxious to see answers of what does work.

Would love to, but not enough space inside of the jeep, especially if one goes for a long time camping with a girlfriend and three dogs :-). Unless of course someone knows the way to put high lift up high insight.

What is that monstrous spare tire size you have on your rig?

There is a kit to mount the high lift on the back roll bar. I don't know who makes it....i will hunt around for it.

Woods has one for the 4dr peeps that keep it high inside the Jeep. Quadratec has one in there catalog and there is a couple others that mount it on the cage near the rear of the Jeep.
