Are there any safe places to use a hilift on a stock bumper? (front/rear) was thinking of doing some 4wding but need a hilift!

Cheers,

Hi,

I think there are no really safe places to attach a hi-lift on stock bumpers. Best option is to try near where the bumper mounts are to the body.

I think best to have front and rear aftermarket bars or armour to jack from.

I use "bull-bag" to lift mine when needed.

Cheers

Maybe the rease hitch, when the tow ball is removed. but this will lift up both rear wheels.

Best option - leave the hi-lift at home....and don't let it near any type of vehicle at all. In fact chain it up - they are dangerous!
