Worked on the high lift mount for the carrier today. I had enough steel sitting around that I just decided to build one. I just kept it simple. I basically just need to weld a bracket at the top to secure it and drill a couple of holes and it's done. Not sure when I'll get to that.

Finished the jack mount today. Made a support bracket and welded it on.
Had the perfect piece of scrap to make a clearance spacer that the bolt could still go through.
Bolted up with a wing nut. I need a shorter bolt, but that's all I had at the time. There's one more bolt on the bottom pedastal that I forgot to take a picture of, it also has a wing nut.
I didn't anticipate this, but lucked out. To open the hatch, I have to push the carrier out quite a ways. Then after the hatch is closed, the carrier/jack come to rest here. Just below the paint. Close one.
And here's the finished product. Feels good to be a real Jeeper again.

Looks good!... what about chopping an Inch or so off the highlift for extra clearance? Do you need the top hole?

Looks good! Bonus points for setting it up to use the Jack to hold up the gate when the struts wear out.

Thanks.
:cheesy: So true.
I need all the holes
I really did think about cutting off a few inches.

Didn't think about that! So true, I may just leave it as is.

I'm having a little trouble understanding your posts with all that badass color you inserted.
