Many jeepers are looking for ways to mount their hi-lift jack on their Jeep. I decided that I wanted to keep mine as far away from Mother Nature as possible, especially with all the salt that goes on our streets in the winter time.

So with that in mind, I found out that many were mounting it behind the backseat on the rollcage. Found a few write-ups and went on from there. Notably one found on JonFund.com with a few modifications since I didn’t have a welder.

Here’s what it looks like:


What you’ll need:

  • 2 x 2″ Heavy Duty Muffler clamps
  • Drill
  • Grinder
  • Wrenches
  • Lock
  • Wing nuts
  • Railing from garage door - this is what I used instead of the 1/16″ Steel L Bracket since I don’t have a welder

Let’s get started

Check the base of your jack. You’ll see that there are 3 holes in it in a form of a triangle. I used the 2 bottom ones to fix it to the clamp.

Now for the other side

We drilled 2 holes in the railing so that we could fix it to the clamps. When it was installed and tightened, we used a grinder to make the U-bolt flush with the nuts. A hacksaw will do the same. Drilled another hole at the bottom of the railing, rested the jack on it and attached the lock… and voilà!
