Author Message   Hunter Louis (Hglouis) Posted on Saturday, January 04, 2003 - 02:17 pm:    Anyone know of a cheapo way to mount a high lift jack to the spare wheel?? I saw a cool outfit in the new AB magazine, but was looking for something inexpensive... Also made a new site today: www.geocities.com/kyunimogs/rover check it out! Thanks!

I don't know what size hi-lift you have but the spare tire isn't a good place for the 60" jack and the one in AB is sold as for the jackall not the hi-lift or did they come out with a new one? Also try http://hometown.aol.com believe it or not there are fewer popups over geocities.   Hunter Louis (Hglouis) Posted on Saturday, January 04, 2003 - 02:53 pm:    Oh yeah, i guess that is for the jackall, whoops. Anyway it looked like a good idea. If i have the time, i guess i'll just make up a piece like what they're selling. No rack and very slim bumper makes it difficult to mount anywhere else on my truck. thanks for the help!!

I know it's not as cool looking but it's easy to get at.   Carter Simcoe (Carter) Posted on Saturday, January 04, 2003 - 04:20 pm:    If you do that make sure to tie it down with something, it would suck to the highest degree if that thing hit you in the head during a roll over.   nadim Posted on Sunday, January 05, 2003 - 11:06 am:    I agree with Al and with Carter, that is why I have mine across in the same way and tied down to the seat belt hooks that just happen to be underneath it.
