    Hilift Mount on Def FrontRunner

    Was looking for a place to mount my Hilift Jack, Across the rear xMember was not an option because I have a reverse camera in the hole .

    If you have a FrontRunner spare wheel mount there is just enough room for a jack mount, but if you have bigger tyres it wont fit,

    As per the photos With the door fully open there is just a Bees Dick clearance between the jack and the Red Fog Lamp Lens & Indicator Lens. I might grind some clearance into to the jack baseplate because if the door gets swung open it might hit a lens.

    Another problem sorted !

    The plate that the jack base sits on, could you extend that up so it clears the light?

    And the pics are good too,, now I can see how I need to make mine,,

    Cheers Chops

    can you turn the jack upside down and modify support plate?

    Could, but then the top of the jack would be above the roof & catch on trees & such, Its just inline with the top of roof at the moment.

    DUH , Just looking at the pics again (bottom photo) & I can see the landy hilift jack adaptor isnt going to fit the Jacking hole in the rear xmember because of the jack mount plate being in the way

    I guess I'll be making an extended jack adaptor for that corner !!

    There's not a lot of places to mount a Hi-Lift on a 110. I mounted mine in a similar position, only my bracket fits over the RHS of the carrier.
    I've since sold this mount to another member, but I've just made a new one which incorporates a telescopic light mount. It's getting electroplated at the moment, so no pics of the new one yet.

    Cheers, Murray
