    I also still have some patches! Great for filling up that headliner or just filling in that empty velcro space on your jacket!

    I just picked up a 60 in Hi-lift today, so I'll be ordering some mounts from you soon. Did you have a pic of a 60 in a short bed?

    From looking around and test fitting with some diy brackets I already had, it looks like I'm going to need to cut a couple inches off for the best fit.

    If you have this then yeah it should work with my universal mounts. From the picture below they are using the large quick fist mounts that will attach to my universal mounts. You will need to mount it horizontally, which shouldnt be an issue. Should mount up much like a water port...

    Yes that is it. But i wanted to mount it upright since that is the intended use of it.

    If you dont mind it sticking above the bed sides then you could mount it vertically. You could get ~6" gap between the 2 quick fist mounts.

    Just received my mounts. I like the bracket, although I had to clean up the hole for the carriage bolt to fit through.

    Suggestion, ship the kit with 2 ea wing nuts for securing the jack to the mount. I'm going to replace mine so I don't have to use a 19mm every time I need to use my jack.

    They dont make wing nuts that work with the bolts that i use or i would. You need to buy stainless steel bolts with the wingnuts and those are expensive and would cause the cost of the mounts to go up.

    I test fit one of the bolts i use and it fit so i thought it was good. Sorry about that man.
