Looking for methods of using my HI-Lift with my ZJ. No ARB or Rock sliders yet, only stock plastic trim with 4" lift, 31x10.5's.

No real option other that inseting the toung of the Hi-lift into the reciver tube of the hitch, but that makes for a real tippy situation. In the front, you might rig something to work with tow hooks, if you have them.

For a stock ZJ, stay away from the Hi-lift. Even the factory bottle jack is better to use, even if you have to stack rocks or plant a tree trunk or something to place the bottle jack on.

My $.02.

The reciever hitch is the only way unless you don't mind a little darnage.

yup, only use the hitch. You will destroy the ZJ if you dont have sliders or a heavy duty bumper.
