High lift jack mount on side of FJ40

[alabamacruiser7]

I want to mount a High Lift jack on the side of my 40 in front of the passenger door. I have seen and like this look on so many other 40's but I don't want to drill holes in the body. Is there a mount that mounts to the windshield hinge or something?

Use a bracket off the windshield hinge

I'm told the thing I have on mine was made by Kaymar.

It attaches to the hinge.

This is good Tech.

Thanks for the pics, I'll add it to the growing list of things that I need to accomplish...

Here's my setup.

Custom bracket fabbed for windshied hinge.

The two pins on the sliders are a set of spring pins (big round head on a threaded shaft, and are threaded right inot the sliders. It works great, they fit right into the holes in the bottom of the jack - no trouble.

Hole drilled in pin allows a small lock - keeps the honest people from stealing the jack, a serious thief would requrie about 1 minute to bust my Master Lock padlock

I used a leftover stock shackle to make mine....off the two screws on the side of the w/s hinge. It's got that extra 'recycling' thing going.

Can you post up some pictures? I'm having trouble visualizing the set up. I recall reading about using an old shackle to fabricate a mount and couldn't get the visual at that time either.

Thanks for the pics, they always help. I am going to attempt my own that will be similar to some of yours.

Made up another one for the new FJ.

Since it's got the old-school two-piece running boards, I decided to go for the full bolt-on, no-holes drilled approach.

Baseplate with two pins:

w/s hinge mounted shackle plate [I plan to put a couple of shackle bushings in between the plate and the jack, just didn't get there yet!]:

And the 'long' shot:
