Me too ..... on seeing other people's and my own adventures turn into rescues ....My Moab friends are wise and don't go looking for trouble but because they are adventuresome, they find it sometimes. The photo of their Toyota LC stuck in quick sand and had they not had the HL jack ... well, who know's how they'd have gotten out of that. Nobody else out there where they were. I almost got stuck in 2 deep holes (both right-side tires) in Long Canyon my last trip but was lucky to be able to rock out because the road is very steep ... gravity-assist.

Most 4X stores have a very convenient mounting set up .... two V-shaped devices that bolt onto whatever fairly flat surface (I was thinking of the very rear of the fiberglass pop top ... would work nicely), then the jack mounts to the tops of the V's. Since I already have Gary Lee's "stuff" on the rear, I asked him to make this one more attachment tool. It's in the mail.
