where did you mount your hi-lit jack?

Mine fits under the rear seats perfectly where the factory bottle jack was I believe mines a 42 inch jack

 

I only keep it under the rear seats in the winter and rainy months. I googled home made high lift mounts and found a jeep guy and copied his roof rack mount

I used 2 "quick fists" to attach it to my Yakima rack. IIRC they are intended for mounting fire extinguishers (and the like) but I liked the price difference compared to the Yakima rack attachment:

I like that hitch mount...I may have to make me one.

I didn't like having it on the roof rack, I couldn't quite fit it under the rear seat without getting rid of the factory jack. I was left mounting it on the back or the front bumper, I chose the front because I (and more importantly the family) access the back hatch area almost constantly throughout our trips and didn't want anyone injuring themselves.

 

Then I tested it on my recent trip to Moab and back, worked fantastic! :)
