As the 34” wheels all but render the OEM jack useless I’ve installed a Hi-Lift Jack in the box.
you’ll notice that installed on the back rail the nose of the Jack is above the box height by an inch or so. If you have a cover you’ll have to mount it on the side of the box where the rail is an 1 1/2” lower.
Lift-Hi-Lift XT 485
You’ll note I’ve removed the winch/clamp/spreader attachment as it is simply in the way when utilizing the Jack. I’d suggested saving some money and not buying the “extreme” model
YESHMA Jack Mount -$28
This is the exact Jack Mount sold by Hi-Lift for $89. I replaced the threaded handle fasteners with 3/8” X 16 nylon lock nuts and 3/8” fender washers to make it a little more difficult to steal.
ZORASEN Rock Slider Adapter
As I’ve installed OEM rock sliders I went ahead and bought the adapter. It has a working diameter of only 2 1/8”.
Mount and Jack is solid and rattle free with one exception so I simply placed a wood shim between the post and the jack assembly. See pic
