🚙 Enhance Your Jeep TJ with the Hi-Lift HM-825 Hood Mount - Secure and Convenient! Review

Easy to install and keeps my hi-lift jack very secure. I thought it might drive me crazy seeing the jack on the hood all the time, but after a few days I don't even notice it anymore.

So I have a 2006 Jeep Wrangler, this thing works but the bolts that come with it suck, you have to run to the hardware store and buy better quality new ones. It works well with my socket, the quality is good but I still find it expensive for the price.

The installation manual must include pictures of the parts. It's a fairly simple set, but the vague instructions make it more complicated than it needs to be.

Overall I liked the finished product, the jack sits high enough not to get in the way of the wiper nozzles and this bracket looks neat. Def will need something to hold the…

The main problem was in the stamped bracket under the jeep's hood that the hinge and those screws attached to. The bracket is not perfectly aligned with the holes. So when you want to install the screws, they are at such an angle that they want to cross the threads. This prompted me to open up the holes in the hood to give the bolts more room to move. It didn't work
