Re: Hi-Lift mounting
That is what I meant. The fact that the jack was designed
'specifically' to fit your vehicle with the slots made them a 'lot' more
stable than the high lift can ever dream of.
They also took trying to get them to spontaneously send the handle
ballistic or drop to the ground, not like a high lift that would rather
do that than work.

Hi Mike,
True. But it still would automatically jack down so long as the
handle would stay in it, before it slung off, and it would slip
completely down, too if we didn't complete each racket sequence:

If you really must have it on your jeep have a look here-
