Where's the best place to fit a hi lift jack?
« on: September 03, 2006, 19:09:47 »
I looking at places to mount a hi lift - where's the best place.
I was thinking about mounting it behind the seats on the bulkhead where the original one fitted - Can you buy brackets to mount it here?

Cheers in advance

Darren

Behind the seats can't be easy top access and not great putting it back covered in mud.

Here's mine. No costly brackets, just few pounds for bolts washers and nuts..





Easy to access and put back and doesn't get in the way.

Cheers

mines in the same place as steves. I used a jack mount from mill services though. I also had to chop a few inches off to get it to fit.
