Hi-lift on stock roof rack?
I've seen Slee's product for mounting the hi-lift jack to the stock roof rack on a 4runner but I cant see spending more for mounts then I did on the jack. Anyone have a cheaper solution?

I know 'Ric', 'hhog4dc', and a few others have hi-lift jacks mounted to their roof baskets....
More pics can probably be found here....

Oh, another reason why I don't mount it externally is that in AZ, metal on vehicles gets RIDICULOUSLY hot.
You could also check out Schaefer's cargo mount system:

Some one here had a pic up of how they mounted theirs in the cargo area that i'm gonna try next week when my hi-lift gets here. Its just like Shaefer's, but he just unbolted the two rings in the back of the cargo area and put new bolts in there. Same idea as Shaefer's, just a little more economical if you're like me and dont' have the money to buy Shaefer's.

Look here for mounting in the cargo area. I do something similar and it works great.
