I think the 4xrac mount is like 30 bones. Save your money and run a couple of bolts through the bottom of the stock rack so you can mount it length wise. I'm thinking the bolts would go through the numerous holes in the shaft of the jack. Slap on some wing nuts and your set. You could even go as far as to slide rubber tubing over the bolts to cut down on metal vs metal contact rattle. Hope this helps!

I had pulled the 4xrac set up off my old jeep when it was hit by a drunk driving at night in front of the house. I had it mounted to the rear bumper, which also acted as a pretty nice step up to the roof rack whenever i needed.

Our not worried about it getting smashed or busted up when wheeling with it on the rear bumper. I would destroy that on mine when wheeling. I put mine on the roof rack using some althread some washers nuts and wing nuts.
