I've got a Defender roof rack and the Hi Lift jack mounts that Defender sold as an accessory. The problem is that, for some bizarre reason, Defender designed the mounts so that the jack rides up above the top of the rack and I can't use 'em because it makes my rig too tall for the parking garage where I live. I'm really getting tired of the jack being in my way in the interior cargo area, so I'd like to find a way to mount it to the side of the roof rack. Here's the catch - I'm pretty limited in terms of tools and fabrication ability. I've got no welder and no bender of any kind. I do have saws that will cut through steel stock, a drill press, and various taps and dies. If anyone has designed a simple mounting system that will work with these limitations, I'd love to see a picture or two. Thanks, and Happy New Year.
