Hi-Lift Jack mount location?

[faisalmalam]

Anyone have any ideas or solutions for mounting a Hi-Lift Jack to their Bronco?

4 Dr Badlands, Soft-top

Think I'm interested in something similar (in location and orientation) to the Jeep mounts that stand it up on in the right rear corner. I believe those piggy back off the tailgate hinges.

I’ve got a 4 door model and will mount to the rollbar. The other solution presented here (mounting to factory bolt points on the rollbar) will only work for 2 door models. 4 doors don’t have those factory mounting points.

That said, I’m using Built Right Industries Quick Fist Riser mounts — long arm.

But instead of using the included mounting hardware, I used 2 nine inch Titan straps for each bracket (four total). I tensioned the straps to 4 holes. I also put a small rubber strip between the bracket and roll bar to protect the paint.

Heres my setup.
Clears top and speakers and is inside so less likely to get it stolen.
Utilitizes the factory holes in roll bar.

Where did you get the hardware for that? What size thread in bolt?

I'll probably use this if I decide to get a Hi-Lift. But I'll only carry the jack when going off road.

Well done! Are you still running this set up? Does the Jack mechanism rattle drive you crazy? Cheers.

No because I made the truck a half cab now and remove part of the roll bar. However when I was using it it was quiet and it did not make any noise... it's a great place for the jack.

I’ve since figured out that my 2Door does not have the threaded inserts in the rear roll bar. My search for a proper jack solution remains as an ongoing project. I should just give in, admit defeat on the hi-lift and order a safe Jack. Ha ha ha.

I can't remember if I posted before, but my third iteration is a 42" jack (replaced my 50 year old 48) on a bull bar using Amazon roll bar mount hardware, Previously I used a horizontal rear hitch mount : hung too low and won't work with my new bumper and a mount on the rotopax carrier next to the spare tire: can't carry both gas and jack, I like the bull bar best, but I use the shorter 42" jack.
