the Hi-Lift Jack Mount to the top four bolt
slots on the RockBrawler tire carrier. It may
be necessary to lower the spare tire mount
if the top four bolt slots are not available.
Thoroughly tighten all four screws/nuts.
4. Insert the two carriage bolts into the slots
at either end of the Hi-Lift Jack Mount. The
heads of the carriage bolts should be on the
spare tire side of the jack mount (toward the
rear of the Jeep, if the tire carrier is latched
shut). Make sure the flats under the heads
of the carriage bolts correctly engage into the
slots. Note that it may be a tight fit, and the
carriage bolts might not fully seat until they
are tightened in later steps.
5. Install a 1/2” Pushnut Bolt Retainer (looks
like a thin metal washer with internal “teeth”)
onto each carriage bolt, with the teeth pointed
away from the bolt head. Push the retainers
all the way against the Jack Mount Plate.
6. Install a urethane bushing on to each
carriage bolt.

7. With the help of a friend, lift the Hi-Lift Jack
up on to the carriage bolts, while feeding
the threaded ends of the bolts into the slots
on the lifting bar of the Hi-Lift jack. Make
sure the jack is centered in relation to the
mount, with the lifting foot of the Jack pointed
downward. Make sure the carriage bolts are
going through correctly spaced holes in the
jack’s lifting bar, so that they are straight
(perpendicular to the mount).
8. Install a 1/2” flat washer on to the threads
of each carriage bolt.

9. Decide whether to use the supplied 1/2-13
wing nuts or the 1/2-13 nylon insert lock nuts.
Install the nut of your choice and securely
tighten. Note that the urethane bushing will
compress, and the carriage bolts will seat
into the slots in the mount plate as the nuts
are tightened.
NOTE: Using the wing-nuts will be more
convenient, for those who access the Jack more
frequently. However, using the lock nuts will
be more secure, providing a measure of theft
deterrent. Choose whichever method suits your
needs best.
10. Grab onto the Hi-Lift jack and test that it
is securely mounted. Further tighten any
fasteners as needed.
11. Latch the tire carrier and re-install the
spare tire.
Congratulations, you have completed installation
of your RockBrawler Hi-Lift Jack Mount!
