You know that zip ties degrade in outside weather, right?

I said temporary- its just for a week or so. I wouldn't recommend this as an real solution. I plan to get some small u-bolts to hold it down onto the roof basket crossbars, or if I get a new tire carrier/bumper next week like I am planning, I might mount it on the tire support bar.

Default Got Hi Lift?

Lots of great ideas!

Here's my take on Hi Lift storage. It's strapped down securly and easy to get to. I still have room for a small cooler with lunch etc in it. I can go get groceries too. My XJ is my daily driver. I have installed 7 tiedown D rings with grade 5 bolts through the floor board to keep things in place while wheeling.

Check out the bumper here

Mine used to be on my front bumper. Now it's on my rear. You can kinda see it in this pic. I'll get a pic of it on the rear in a few.

Or back into something! I'm always backing into stumps, rocks, and toyotas (on purpose).

I flipped the back seat up. Gavethe tunnel a couple love taps with a BFH and threw my high lift in. Closed the seat and boom. No rattles, no extra mount. Takes up zero extra space

Like it - since I can't get rid of the spare bracket, might as well use it. Did you fix the end of the jack as well?

all-thread through the bumper and drilled for a lock works well on the cheap
