Here for you.

PS. If you submit a picture of a product on your jeep to 4wd.com and it gets accepted, you get an additional $5 off your next purchase. PLUS everyone else who looks at that part gets to see sweet pictures of your rig.  ::) Just food for thought.

Agree with Will, jacks outside in new england weather get screwed up, trust me, mine is in less than desirable shape for this reason. Unless you shove a wad of grease in there once a month or so, your gonna have issues with that jack, and it could be dangerous. I only use mine if i have to because its unpredictable. Id reccomend mounting it inside. You wont have to worry about it coming through your windsheild, people asking you stupid questions, weather damaging it, or anyone stealing it.

I agree with the whole weather and theft thing, but where exactly on the roll bar are we talking?? I dont know about you guys, but my 48" jack takes up most of my rear bumper under my spare tire. I couldn't imagine having to take something that bulky in and out of a hard top(or soft top for that matter). Does anybody have any pictures of this style of mounting?  I'd like to see this. I've seen that they make brackets for it, but it almost seemed impractical. I also found as an alternative to grease, if you hit it with WD40 every so often, it keeps the dirt from building up on it and helps with the ease of use.

I hate wd40, its water based, makes stuff rust, if anything use pb blaster. Easier to just put a wad of smelly old grease if u ask me. but to each his own
