Default Rampage or Rugged Ridge??

Which Hi-lift jack mount is better? This is a nice option for me because I have a hard top and I don't have a rack, so, my Hi-Lift usually goes under my rear seat ('08 Unlimited) and stays there. Not very secure with the doors off if someone is in the marked for a Hi-Lift jack CHEAP!!

So, just looking for some feedback. Heard Rampage was chintzier. Any input is appreciated!! Many thanks!!

I have a hard top and it's on. A roll bar mount would be too much of a PITA for me because it blocks rear access from the tailgate. I thought about that, and that would be a really good option for me if I had a soft top, or my top was off. Thanks for the input. I just LOVE finding all the options!!

I have the Rampage. It took me a bit of trial and error to get the jack mounted exactly how I wanted it without rattles (rattles in the jack, not mount). The Rugged Ridge mount was not out yet. I ended up flipping the top mount and getting some cheap hardware to cock the jack over to put some tension on the jack "ankle".

Overall I'm pleased with it, but the RR looks a little more substantial. I haven't had any other issues with the mount for 2.5 years.
