I'm starting my rear bumper/tire carrier project. I haven't decided how I'm going to securely mount the hylift on the bumper. Gotta make sure it's under lock and key. Any good ideas?

When you make the mount, you can just use two pins that stick thru the bar of the jack. Drill a hole thru the pins, use one latch pin and one padlock or two padlocks.

my idea was kind of ghetto fabed. i had some chain and just welded it to the jack. wrapped it around my flatbed tubing and locked it together.

I did the 2 pins on the base plate.

and a threaded rod for the top. just a strap around the handle and the bar of the jack.
