    Hi all,

    I’m debating on what type of jack and how to mount it for the Tundra.

    If I go with a HiLift, the options are easy for mounting in the bed.

    If I go with a floor Jack, I was trying to think of a way to mount it to the bed. I know some people have used the ProEagle extensions with a HF jack.

    I found this. Does anyone have any experience with this jack holder?

    If I go with a ProEagle, has anyone used their mount in the bed?

    Thanks all.

    in my old truck(ram 1500) I always used the rear bed tie downs... perfect placement and just through my floor jack in a tool bag and a ratchet strap around it... in my tundra I've had to go to the front of the bed to do the same as the rear hooks are gone due to the bed extender mount... I've been toying with the idea of using the bed mount bolts on the driver side and build a deal like the pro eagle jack mount but to suit my jack... or else just mount another hook towards the rear of the bed

    no experience with that pitpal... seems odd to me

    Hi lift on front rail, 12t bottle in trail box, stock behind seat, if I take my floor jack it gets a chain and locked to the rear right tiedown and sits on the bed mat. Different jacks have different uses.

    How do you use a Hi-Lift with a stock truck?

    You can use a lift mate to lift a wheel, you can use it as a manual winch, and you can lift the rear from the hitch receiver to name a few.
