Reviews for Smittybilt 2844 Trail Jack Mount for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK with HD Pivot Tire Carrier
Gift
Easy bolt on to my existing Smitty tire carrier. Looks great and works great.
Well made. Mounted to Smittybilt gen2 rear tire carrier easily.
Quick, easy, and secure instalation. An optional lock would be a handy accessory to help prevent theft.
Perfect fit. And works great
Mount is as advertised so no issue there. Like the other reviewer, I would like to see a way to lock the jack on the vehicle as the current design allows for easy theft (although it does require tools). An easier securing method like a wing nut (for when you need to use the jack) with a place for a lock would be an easy mod for the manufacturer that would be helpful.
Also, I live in a place where things like this get stolen and I took the jack off the Jeep and stored it but lost the hardware to put it back on. I contacted the manufacturer to buy replacement hardware and was told there was none available. Totally my fault for losing the hardware but it would have been nice if I could buy the original spec parts as a replacement. If you take your jack off when you aren't using it, make sure you put the parts in a safe place
