I don't do mud, but it looks like you get an "A" for effort...:D

Hopefully it's your wife's job to keep the cars clean. If it aint just sweet talk her. Hey where did you get the high lift jack hood mount, or did you make them... I like how it looks.

I got it from Q-tec here..but I dont think they offer the mount anymore. The closest thing I found was this (http://www.quadratec.com/products/92200_500.htm)..it's a bit pricey tho..you could make something as its pretty simple..it bolts to your hinges and you will need a 4 inch carriage bolt and wing nuts to secure the jack with. The head of the carriage bolts rest upon a hinge bolt..if need be, I can take a pic tomorrow for ya to give you a better idea on how it works and looks.

Drlewall if you could that would be great, it'll help me to make my own rather than spending my beer money on it. Thanks

Coincidence. Road 'round here turn to chowder. I'm hungry. When's lunch?

I suggest the Yzermount (http://www.creeperjeepers.org/yzermount.html). Safer and (ideal for me) cheaper.
Here is a pic of how I carry the foot.

Hey Doc, Now you see wahat I put up with every spring around here. Right now I try not to drive on any of the back roads in the afternoon because of the frost heave at night and in the afternoon thaw they are just like mud bogs.

here..when the ground thaws at all, the bottom just drop out..one day it thawed and I sat a hat moving in the mud..I took a long stick and managed to pick that hat up on the tip and there was a mans head under it..he said howdy and I said looks like that mud is kinda deep..he said it sure is as the mule he was on was having a hard time walkin thru it!
