Is that a hi-lift jack on the front with the base removed?
If so I like how you have it painted and mounted!
Did you just use existing mounting holes? Any close ups of it?
Thanks,

Yes it is a standard hi-lift (the longer one) originally red, with the base removed. I carry the base inside with my other recovery gear. I know it will take a bit of assembly to put it back together but it really is for a last resort recovery as I travel as a solo vehicle most of the time. The jack fits the existing mounts that were there for the arial tubes as it is a ex-Swiss radio truck. The jack has had a light brush of the same paint I use for the truck so it blends nice. I kind of forget its there as it looks like it is meant to fitted there as it fits so neat :)
