Title: Hi-Lift Jack Case and Mount finished
Post by: Quaddawg on August 07, 2006, 04:14:02 PM

I got my JackGuard Hi-Lift case and 100th anniversary jack in..

I made a quick mount out of steel plate, and mounted the stainless quick release straps to it.

I wanted it easy to remove, as I will eventually replace my tailgate, and this will transfer to any spare tire carrier with the same bolt pattern.

I welded a piece of angle iron to the back to stiffen it up, and give me some flat spots to mount a whip style dune flag, such as you need at Badlands in Attica IN. 

Simple and quick, and came out just about like I wanted it.

If you are out in any elements this thing is a must. I have one and it is really nice.

Don't need a spare, these tires will run with 0 pressure, especially long enough to get out of the woods.. Plus I carry air and plugs. With a severely cut sidewall, the tire is ruined anyway, so it's never a problem, never need a spare, just excess weight.  The Hi-lift isn't for changing tires...  ;)
