Thats a good looking rig you've got! The big bumpers are starting to grow on me, I'll be keeping mine.

With that hi-lift mount will the kick vent still open?
 
Thanks,well really I never use the kick vents before i mount the hi lift jack on the side,but right now i have speakers on the kick vents area,i guess you can't open all the way out the vent behind the jack

I never really use mine either all i seem to get through it is hot air from the engine.

Did you fab the mount yourself or purchase if so where did you get it?

Thats is where i want my jack mounted too.
 
Yes i made my own bracket and someone at my work welded for me, not hard to make it,just how to do it was the thinking part...:D:meh:

Now that's a cruiser used well - great pics. One thing, especially with a synthetic cable, use a chain somewhere in the tow connection (also when using cables and towing straps). I have a friend who lost a cousin when a tow strap snapped and hit in the head - they snap like rubber bands, especially those synthetics. The chain keeps the tow system from acting like a rubber band if/when it snaps. Happy Trails. Aren't there alacrocidiators in Florida?
 
Thanks for the advice,i will keep that in mind..now>>Aren't there alacrocidiators in Florida?<<<:confused: did you mean something like in this picture below???:D

exactly, an alacrocidator!:hillbilly: Damn things will eat your birfs, won't they?
 
On every run to the trail or the beach,we like to cook..but run out of space using the tailgate like a table and no room for the BBQ grill...:idea: then i made the solution...

Looks like you're having a good time! I'd reconsider having a BBQ grille next to 15 gallons of gasoline? That’s an accident waiting to happen!
 
:D those tanks are empty(2 gasoline) 1 water(water always its full on the trips) And in the event that i need it full of gas and have to cook..believe me that i will move the cans first and away from the kitchen...;)
