I bought a great piece of kit from Wooders, a set of brackets to mount my High Lift Jack between the rear roll bars

I loved having it inside, secure & safe from the elements however it annoyed the hell outta me, it was always in the way no matter what I wanted to do I had to remove it.

I noticed that Jason aka JBrad had a really nice bracket on the back of his JK to hold his HighLift - he told me it came from Wooders..........

I was very excited to install it and get my highLift outta my Jeep! I bought a padlock to safeguard my Jack and rushed home to install.

To say that I was "Unhappy Jan" when I had finished was an understatement LoL my extra long shaft looked like a periscope LoL
what to do - return the exterior bracket, modify the bracket somehow, put the jack back inside? or Circumcise it (Jack).

Out with the angle grinder - select a super fine cutting disc and a minute or so latter - a very nicely modded High lift Jack.

I am now very happy to have the Jack outside my Jeep (until it gets stolen LoL) I cut it off 10mm lower than my front spotlights on my upper light bar
I am still figuring out how to keep it from rattling on bumpy roads - you can see all the cable ties and bungy cords I am using LoL
Cheers Hunty
ps - I am just refitting my roof bars to my new rear bar - it won't look so agricultural soon

Apparently the rules related to the brightness of reversing lights in OZ are solely prescribed in Watts not lumens or Lux. (I await the honourable mightymouse to comment)
ergo the "Evil Homer" in me figured that I could stack a wall of these super bright Led Work / Reverse lamps on the back of my Jeep and still be under the prescribed legal wattage LMAO!

So I just replaced my old tungsten work lamp with this Ebay special $20bux delivered and I have seen the exact same lamp in "The 4by stores" for $265 bux ouch! I was replacing the bulb in my old light when the lens fell out on the ground a shattered - D'oh - so rather than buy another one of the same I decided to get a lamp that could literally run for a week continuously on my std battery and even then the jeep should still start. this LED light is seriously bright for probably less than 1 watt.

Can any one just go and play on it ? If so might head out there next weekend.

Dude when you had the factory park bench, what did you use to mount the spotties you had on it? Looking for Options for mine.
