Hi-Lift Jack Mounted on FWC

[idahoron]

Would describe the mounts you used....Tundra application and we also have a front receiver hitch on our '05 Tundra but it does not have that vertical piece with the round section at the top, is it an extender? Long shovel handle!

Thanks,

Phil

I made the mount my self.

I originally wanted the shovel handle to go through the ring but it didn't work. I also made an anti rattle hitch pin and it is solid.
Here is a video I made on this mount.

I use the lift mate from Hi-Lift.
It uses hooks to attach to the wheel and lift the individual wheel off the ground. This is handy when your in mud and the bottom falls out and your on the frame. You can lift that wheel put rocks and stuff under the tire. You can also apply chains while the wheel is in the air. Without the lift mate the Hi-Lift is useless on newer trucks unless they have sturdy rock sliders. Even with them I don't think a guy would want to lift a truck and camper with just rock sliders. This is a picture of the lift mate below.

Idahodian,

Thanks and great job on fabricating that receiver mount! I have the LiftMate to compliment my Hi-Lift, along with the other extraction pieces to use with it. A bottle jack is great on pavement but will never pull you out when stuck off road like a Hi-Lift can....it is a poor man's winch.

Remember to use your mirrors as a gauge for what IS gonna hit the camper as you pass by.

Desert pinstripe could open the camper like a tin can.
