Badlands off-road jack mounting help

[Franklin]

I have the harbor freight Badlands 3-ton off-road jack. Im looking for a better place to mount it on the inside of the Jeep jku. I was thinking about somehow mounting it to the tailgate. My question is that to much weight? The website says it weights 70lbs. Any better ideas of where to mount it?

I have that same jack but use it as my shop jack. It is definitely hefty! I would say if you remove the spare and upgrade the tailgate hinges you could probably carry it on inside of the tailgate.

I like that first one, mounting it between the roll bars.

Every time I've seen a jack mounted on the exterior it's always been rusted out because people just put that there for looks.

The OP is talking about this jack but in the 3 ton.

Pricey but mounting looks universal. So maybe the rollbar is an option?
